Josh - go faster and they cant see the missing plate. I haven't rocked the front plate on mine since i got it. In fact none of my cars have front plates. If you do get a ticket for it, zip tie one on show the court, pay $10 and repeat.

He was probably lonely and needed someone to talk to way out there.

Yeah, it was definitely an awkward stop. Saw my license said I wore corrective lenses (my contacts) so he got real close and asked me to show him my contacts...so I just kindle opened my eyes real wide and apparently that was good enough lol

Thanks! And I actually saw in your for sale thread you had magnets that held up your license plate? Did that work pretty good?

The magnets are good for parking more than driving. I want something for driving.

I meant the license but I am interested in what your undergrad is.

Alright lol making sure. I'm thinking I might end up going with the hideaway, I really don't want to drill into my bumper so it seems like the only option.

My major was Psychology with a minor in Forensic Psychology. When I first got into college I was dead set on being a psychologist. But the more and more "desk" jobs or retail jobs I worked throughout college, the more meaningless they felt. No matter how much money I made doing them at the end of the day they didn't feel rewarding or like I had put in a good day's work.

Then I started working in a machine shop actually manufacturing parts for oil rigs, stuff like that and I could go home and be happy knowing I put in an honest day's work. I know most people tried to avoid hard manual labor, but it's what I consider honest work. So I put my resume in to a few offshore drilling rigs and I'll see what happens from there, my brother works out there and makes $130k a year and that's more than plenty enough for me to be happy.

Sorry for the long spill, got 4 years of confused career paths built up!

Nice. Thanks for the ideas guys....I just recently bought a car with no holes in the front bumper to put a liscense plate. My dealer tags are going to run out soon and I want to avoid having holes in my front bumper . I live in VA and they are bitches about stuff that involves car modding...I can't even have window tint or an after market exhaust because it is a primary offense and state troopers love to be dicks.
