Need license plate holder! Which one?

So I currently have no license plate holder or anything in front of my car and I need to get it now.

Do the EVO 8 and EVO 9 have the same license plate holder or are they different?

Thanks

I don't have a front license plate, it looks 1000x better without one. It's technically 'illegal' here but I get away with it.

If you need to though, get the OEM one from RussellM here:

Seriously, don't even bother with the front license plate. I've only been pulled over once for having no front license plate since I've owned my car. I'd rather pay 50 bucks once a year than having that eye sore of a holder covering my front bumper.

The Beatrush one looks nice. I bought my friend one for Christmas this year.

No front license in Cali is asking for a ticket and maybe a hood pop.

the beatrush one above is what I run. I love it. No big black plastic sticking out, just your plate. plus I have the bracket spaced out from the bumper and the plate bent so it's big harder to read for those wonderful traffic cams.

I live in the heart of LA and trust me that you don't want to give a cop a reason to pull you over. No front plate is asking for it. Just play it safe and put it on.

I like Evokid's idea. In cali i wouldn't risk it,but In ohio the cops let us get away with no front tags i guess we're lucky.
