Of course you could be a good scout and just mount the front plate as you are supposed to, but guess that would be too easy. And they say women are vain!!!

That would be a good solution for you. Hopefully no one steals your front plate!

They could steal it, put it on the back of their car, and drive around with one plate like you.

Or worse yet, put it on their car, go commit a crime, and then all of a sudden you'll have a couple of cops banging down your door.
