    Never been harassed about it.

    Coworker has a GTI that got a ticket while parked for no front plate, and I was parked behind him.

    Sucks to have NY plates I guess lmao

    I get no front plate tickets and warnings pretty often in my bmw. Pretty much use to getting pulled over in it cause cops basically know they can give me some sort of ticket when they see it.

    Put a front plate on it? Not worth worth losing money over it.

    You don't have to drill any holes or anything, get some a pair of large nite-Ize gear ties and like 4 of the smaller ones from dicks or any other sports store. What I did when I had my Cressida was use the smaller ones as loops through each hole on the plate, then run the long ones through those, essentially creating like a rubber backing on the plate as not to scratch anything hooked those under the grille behind the bumper, and the bottom one looped through the factory tow loop. And it stayed on like it was meant to be there. Took it off when I didn't need it lol.

    I remember reading in one of the threads when I was thinking about getting a bumper that someone used magnets for their plate. I Could be wrong and they used them for something else but that's sticking out in my head.

    I have seen a lot of guys with audi VW and porsche use the magnet front plates. They put high power magnets behind the bumper and on the plate. with enough electrical tape you negate the risk of scratches. these are seriously strong magnets though that will not bounce off if hitting hard holes or bumps on the road with the plate on.

    Meh, I use zip ties to get my inspection done, then cut off my front plate in the parking lot and throw it between the center console and my passenger seat, like a true American :oldglory:

    I finally have an upgrade available for my phone.... I've had a few iPhone and LOVE them, but I switched to a Note3 about a year ago because of some software bugs with my iPhone 5S.

    I'm debating if I go back to the 6s plus, or if I look at the Note5?

    The software bugs get worked out pretty quick usually. I'm having an issue with iCloud backup on my 5S right now since iOS 8.2 but I backup to my desktop hard drive monthly so it isn't a big deal for me.

    None of my friends have issues on the newer phones.
