Recently purchased an out of State 2001 LS430 that had no front license plate mount. Since it is the law here in Texas I addressed this yesterday.

Took the car to Stewarts Body Shop in Dallas & they installed 2 nutserts in the bumper & mounted the plate. They even got out a small brush & touched up 2 nicks in the door for free! Nice place they had 5 Ferrari's in for repair today including a 246 Dino, a 365 Daytona & a 330 GT.

If you want, Lexus has that plate holder as a part, but I'm sure it's about $100.

My '02 was delivered with the front plate holder (body color) in the trunk. There are 4 small "dimples" in the front bumper where holes are to be drilled to mount the holder, if necessary.

I don't like front plates.....so I rock mine w/out it. I live in Texas...they won't hassle you since you drive a lexus..........unless its all VIP'd /Exe'd out! Then they might.....

ride em cowboy. Up her in Jerkey, we need the front plates visible or you'll be pulled. Up north we're all more lawful...

All States currently need revenue so I expect this trend to increase.
I got hassled the other night in a non-descript LS400 & decided I would rather comply.

Which is why I put the " " in there.

When NJ outlaws tint... that's when I'll become an outlaw !!!!

Oh yeah, when the state lawmaker's pockets start getting empty, it's time to push the law to write more obscure tickets for mundane things that haven't been enforced in 60 years, but must happen to be in the law books.

I'm gonna issue you a $300 fine for sitting on a bench during dusk because of a 1918 law prohibiting loitering at dusk, wearing a red shirt and short pants... all because the law was just never removed.

I have not had junjdm's luck in Texas. No problem while in Dallas but have been stopped in Cockrell Hill and West Texas. Just given warnings. Grudgingly just had Sewell put front on. Luckily frame was still in trunk on this 05 LS.
