I signed the waiver for them not to drill the holes on the night I deal was settle. The minute they brought my car to the front door. The license plate was there. I was like wtf. I already knew the chances of me getting one that wasn't drill at the dock is almost less to none. Once I sat in the car, I have to drive it home, the front license plate does not bother me a bit. It also helps when i receive 1000 under invoice, the options I wanted, and the hard to find GFM at that time. I couldn't let this deal pass me by.

If it was a fix-it ticket, I'd risk one time. but since it's just a straight up 3 digit fine (I think), hello drill. I could be wrong on the fine amount, but I know it's not worth paying for the look.
its a 10 dollar fix it ticket. ive gotten like 25 man.

I'm hearing different things for CA. Some people are saying fix-it, others are saying that's not the case anymore, and others are saying it's the officer's discretion on how much he hates you.

How do you "fix-it" 25 times? Do you pretend to put one on to get the cop to sign off on it?

The cost of the ticket isn't always the issue. I don't like being pulled over period. Especially if I've had a drink at happy hour after work (and no, I don't drink more than one, and I know that I'm far below the legal limit of 0.08).

The cops around here will give you a ticket for simply breaking wind, and it is better to avoid giving them a reason to pull you over.

Welcome front plate!!!

it's called a correctable ticket. you get the ticket, and you have to come in to and show them that you corrected the problem (putting front plate on the car), pay the fine. then as soon as the guy walks back inside--bust out screw driver and take it off. pull out of driveway, get pulled over---repeat 24x. lol. that's what im saying though, the suctioncup holder is a clever idea. you can also ziptie it to the bottom mesh grill. nawmean?
