People in front plate states- where is yours mounted?

I hate front plates, and don't want to drill in to my bumper to mount one.
Tacking it on to the front air dam like this seems to work well for me. It's out of the way and still visible from a distance.
Does anyone have their plate in the same place? Anyone get flack from police?

 

Dealer helped with mine. Drilled straight onto the bumper.

 

I live in a one plate state and left mine off, haven't had any issues yet. I see tons of vehicles here (california) with no front plate. So I would say your solution is better than that. It just needs to be clearly visible on the front. I'd be interested to see how you attached it in case I need to get a fix it ticket signed off.

 

Just 2 big 36" zip ties around the air dam.

 

Oh ok, that's simple enough

 

Depends on local laws. Is there a minimum/maximum height in your area?

 

In the front.

 

I'm registered in a state that requires front plate living in a state that doesn't require front plates, so I don't run a front plate.

There is a company that makes a front plate holder that is made for our trucks. It attaches with 3m double sided body molding tape and is form fitting. My dealer put it on. No drilling. I can't find a manufacturer stamp on it to give you the name.

 

^that's the same one I have. Good to know it's not drilled.

 

I know this is crazy, but in my state you only have to run 1 plate IF you have 18,000 lb tags, so that's what I got for my truck. I asked 3 times at the dmv if it could be front or rear and they said yea. Long story short, it's supposed to be on the front only, but I have it on the back. If I get pulled over, I'll fix it, but until then, rockin' it on the back.

 

I never thought about this. I live in Colorado and they do require it. My truck was just born today so I won't have it for two more weeks. I just ASSumed it would have a hanger. If any of you figure out the manufacturer, please post it!

just throwing this out there...in front...what do I win ?...

 

Here in California a front plate is also required. The dealership even had me sign a form acknowledging that the truck came equipped with a front lic plate mount.

 

What part of Texas are you in?

 

Gotta have a front plate in order to avoid getting stopped in every other small Texas town. I originally had a body colored oem license plate mounting block on the truck, but then opted for a thin body colored license plate frame. Having screw holes in my bumper is not a big deal.

 

I live in a front plate state, but register my truck in a non-front plate state...

 

underneath my passenger seat I just haven't bothered putting it on after the plate bumper

 

I have a front plate mount that was in the bed when I bought the truck (and a pleather owners manual holder in the glovy FTMFW)... didn't you guys from the front plate states get one??

They come standard equipment from the factory like that. Ask your stealership for it, MAYBE they "forgot" to give it to you!!

 

A side question....Did the Limited Fog Light Surrounds work with your Sport's wide angle fog lights or did you have to switch them out?
