Me and a friend were thinking about this (dont know if anyone else had the same thought). We live in NY and one thing that annoys us is having a license plate on the front and back of the car. I think NY is one of the few states that requires that!!...We were thinking of getting in contact with some officials or writing a letter (dont know exactly who to write it to) and asking them if we could pay some sort of fee per year to not have it on the front...Just wondering what you NY evos thought about that?!?!..and if its been done sorry didnt know!

 

Ohio requires front and rear plates aswell. It is often overlooked, b/c motorcycles and numerous cars do not have them, i.e. corvettes.

 

I'll take your front license plate bracket if you don't need it.

 

I think most states require a front plate. Front plates are ghey!!!

 

to be honest i dont mind the front plate. its not that big of a deal.

i live in NY also.

 

CA, WA requires a front plate as well

 

NJ as well

 

VA as well, but luckily the law goes away in 08

 

I'm glad Pennsylvania doesn't. Its about the only state in the NE that does not require a front plate. Besides the evo I have an Rx-8 and the front plate blocks almost the entire radiator opening. And rotaries run hot to begin with.

 

my friend actually has an rx-8 and just put the mazdaspeed front bumper on...hes refusing to put it on!!

 

I think that would be cool if NY approved it. The front plate doesn't look bad on the evo, however, I don't have my front NY plate, since I live in NJ and out of state don't enforce NY inspection/plate laws.

 

it doesnt look bad , but it sure looks much better off

 

I live in CA and there's no way I'm putting a front plate on my EVO

my last two cars didn't have front plates either, stupid law

 

In NY its only a $35.00 fine and no points, I will never have a front plate on any of my cars. In fact.. I just had the holes on my 993 TT Porsche bumber filled and the bumper repainted....And thats that....

 

+1. No one in my family has one and my parents say I have to put one on only if the holes are already drilled. I really dont see the point to it. Just another thing for cops in Ohio to pull you over for.

My mom had a license plate frame that covered up half of the county name at the bottom of her license plate and got a ticket. You could see everything else fine. I didnt know the county was even required.

It doesnt look terrible. BUt why drill extra holes into your car? Thats stupid.
