License Plate

Hey guys i really wanna move my license plate somewhere else, make it look differnet and cool instead of in the middle, if you guys have ever seen the evos they have it on the drivers side, so where can i move it besides the stock spot? oo yeah in new york we need a front plate so taking it off isnt an option.

it looks sick and all, but with the heat, i need to keep it out of that gap for the heat exchanger and all, i dont want it blocking any air flow

Front plates look stupid on these cars period. Thats the first thing that came off once it was in the driveway.

Cops are dicks if they actually give you a ticket for no front plate. There is no reason to have a front plate unless the cop is eating a donut in a parking lot and wants to run your plate as he sits in front of you.

If you gotta run one to make Johnny Law happy DONT mount it blocking airflow...DUh...

All emblems on car have also been removed since this picture was taken....

it really doesnt effect airflow much, if at all. takes up a bit less room than the way mkulrey13 did it. besides, a lot of the air going to the aftercooler comes from underneath.

i deff cant do that way, i have to have the whole plate showing, dont worry they made me take the old frames from the dealer off, because it was covering New York on top and the empire state on the bottom, so stupid

thats really stupid. i could understand on the back plate, because there are expiration and registration stickers. but the front plate has nothing. in ohio, the front is still legal as long as the letters/numbers are still showing.

Putting the plate in the lower opening is a huge airflow restriction! Dont kid yourselves its not.
