Yes, front plate is gone forever! To hell with the Texas front plate law, I think its bullshit anyway. Plus, I drive my truck 99.9% of the time now and only bring the Z out for Sunday drives and GTG's.

I had my plate off for 3 years now until a lovely Nacogodoches deputy pulled me over for no plate. Wrote me a citation and told me I shouldn't be displaying such an obvious car without a front license plate Dicks....
