All my cars have not had license plates and have been pulled over and gotten that ticket along with other violations( Too Low, Modified exhaust, No front plate, NOS in my engine) in Fremont CA. It used to be that they could only ticket you after pulling you over for something else. Now they can pull you over JUST for that and look for other things.after they have you pulled over.

You could always get one of the tow hook plate mounts if you don’t want to drill into the front bumper to mount the plate holder.

That way you can still take the plate off for shows and meets and then put back on for daily driving or when you park in a place that has parking enforcement.
I don’t own one yet, but if I ever get a “fix-it-ticket” for no front plate, I will be getting one of these to get it signed off.

This is exactly what I did, Ive had my car for 5 years with no front plate no bracket no nothing, but just about 3 months ago I got a ticket for no front plate, so I didnt want to drill holes so I purchased the RHO Plate, the link stated above is EXACTLY my same color and position of plate, Its funny because I get people that take double looks to see my front plate mounting.

I always wanted one of the retractable license plates brackets. That way, when you see a cop, press a button and the license plate will pop up from under your bumper. They cost too much and I didn't want tickets so I just went ahead and drilled the four holes. The first two months I didn't have a front plate since I have the temps in the rear, I never got pulled over even when numerous cops looked at my front bumper when they were driving by.

As for the fix it ticket on the plates, you can always try to find a cop friend to sign it off.

A cop here in Las Vegas told me that in Nevada, you must install the front plate ONLY if the car has a front plate bracket or bolts. If the car's front bumper doesn't have any plate attachment mechanism, you're OK.

I've known many a owner of Euro cars that tried to side step the need for plates as there was no mounting point for one...
Didn't work.... Tickets still get written, cause its the law...
The best option I have seen so far is this....
