Front License Plate Help
Sad to say I live in Ohio and we are required to have a front license plate......stupid law. Any suggestions on what looks the best or ideas to not make it look so bad on a 2002 Camaro SS 35th Aniv.?
I am thinking about putting it under the car where the air deflector is....but I see where guys were still getting tickets.
Any suggestions or Pictures of some different ideas?
Thanks in advance....

What does the law say? does it have to be at the front of the vehicle, or just visible from the front?
If it's the first option, there is no real good way. If it's the second one, you can put it on your dash.
There is always the option of the ticket.

I have not got a ticket.....but I have been reading in another forum that others in my area in Ohio has been getting tickets.
I have been thinking of going without one....and see what happens.
I had a 2002 TA, but sold it in 2004 when we decided to have some kids. I recently just purchased the SS, and it was a PA car and they do not need front plates.....so there is no bracket. Just looking for ideas....I searched on here and googled it...just seeing if anyone has some different idea.

I've seen a couple people on here put their plates behind their billett grills, which actually didn't look too bad... didn't look great either, but if i HAD to put a license plate up front, it's probably the best option i've seen.

what kind of grill do you have now? SLP grill, billett grill, no grill, stock plastic?

i have my LP on my dash. but i am also thinking of putting it on the plastic piece like you mentioned under the car. try to hang it just a bit low so that way they see there is a LP atleast.
and if you do you get pulled over, dont try to be a dick about the ticket... try to be cool and nice and they should hopefully just give you a warning.

I vote C: none of the above. Go plateless. In my experience they won't pull you over just for the lack of plate, but they'll tack that onto whatever else they may have pulled you over for. I've had mine off for about 2 years after running with the plate and haven't had a problem.......yet :knocks on wood:
