Default Missouri People i have a ? for you

Im about to move to the KC area and my gf is wanting to live on the Missouri side close to her parents, but im not wanting to have to put a tag on the front of m TA. Is there any way around it or any suggestions?

If you live in MO then your car is required to have a front plate, period. A lot of guys just leave it off and give the popo a reason to pull them over any time, any where. And there are fines involved.

I run mine under the windshield up by the vin tag. It seems like most cops don't give a **** as long as it visible. As stated above, state cops might care but i've never had a problem. Don't be scared.

SLP sells a bracket that mounts it under the bumber I think. Watch those KC pigs bc they are DICKS!!!!!! That's why I stay the hell out of that POS town. The city in general has screwed the car enthusiast in more ways then one, aka shutting down Kansas City International Raceway

I have that bracket; it's the only way for me to display a front plate since I have the SLP glossy black bowtie grill. I keep crushing it every time I pull the front of the car up to a curb or a concrete parking space marker.
I've only been pulled over once for not having it, and he let me go with a warning. I had the plate in the car with me.
