Default License Plate Mount for TA ??

Hello all;

I am looking for a solution to mount the front plate on the bird, without taking the Phoenix off. I have to have it on in this bloody province and I just paid $ 160.00 fine for not having it on. Driving a Yellow Bird, I am marked by the cops! help please.

thank you all

Would the clear cover be a solution you'd think about, you get the phoenix, yet your plate is visible

alot of people use suction cups to mount it inside the windshield, or screw the plate on the front plastic radiator air dam.

What you want is one of these





Bolt it to the bottom of your bumper and keep it tucked away, then flip it down at the flick of a switch


You can really F#ck with a cop's head if you flip it down after he pulls you over

There are a few places that have them online....



Here's one from Stylin Concepts:





And here's a cheaper one from Hot Rod Products that's actually vacuum operated:

I believe being caught with one of those kits is a pretty high fine in many states. Cool idea though.
