I made a custom bracket for my NSX that flips down and back up. Completely incognito...but then again, I think the OEM bracket for the X looks great!

New to board, though looks like no many ppl visit it. I was always curious why the Ralliart wasn't made with the Evo X front license plate mount anyways and why they didn't even make a place to put a front plate. I live in Missouri and it's required to have a front plate. Right now its in front windshield, but after reading some posts, I'm gonna put it under my seat.
If I do decide to get it mounted, I'm just gonna do the Evo X mount and have the dealer install it.

buy some neodynium magnets and glue them to the back of your front bumper and the other side to your plate holder.

You will draw more attention to yourself with it in the windshield then nothing at all!!

Reason being that if you get into an accident, that plate turns into a flying piece of metal inside you car.

Goto a shop that does vinyl wraps with your license plate. Have the print a sticker of your plate and slap it on. I live in NJ and i haven't been bothered.

Yes. Here's the link to the law.

However. The vinyl idea mentioned earlier is a legal work around at least here in Idaho.
Because it says 2 plates. You have to put the second plate under the first one in the rear thus fulfilling the 2 plate part. And just have a vinyl print somewhere on the front. A former marshal told me this is legal and his car is set up this way.

I am considering doing this and will probably put it up on top of my window where the rear view mirror is. But a plate looks bad anywhere on the front of the car in my opinion so until I get a ticket (1.5 years running without one, just a ton of traffic stops with "Warnings") I will not put it on the front of the car. But I also live in northern Idaho so I have no clue what the cops are like down in southern Idaho.
