Cool. Yay for no codes!

Hey everybody. It's a slow wednesday around town here too.

Jamie, that's exactly the reason the front plate filler for my Junior edition is sitting next to my computer desk, and not attached to my car.

Jamie, I've seen people keep their front plate sitting inside the car within reach of the driver. When they see a cop, they quickly throw the plate on top of the dash.

Don't know if it works or not. But maybe something to try? Just a thought.

hm. i could try that! that would be a good idea. tough when they're pulling you over by hand, as he'd see me do it, but it's worth a shot. my dad told me i should say that it's a show car and i just got back from a show and forgot to put the front plate back on first

thanks lou!!

when we brought my buick home we sat the dealer plate on the rear package tray. i think its legal just as long as the plate is in a visable location.
or you could do like one A-hole who moved in up the street, and take your un-registered, un- insured, and un- inspected pos honda anywhere with a peice of cardbord zip tied in place of the plate that says " lost plate..." lol.

anyways, im in a really good mood, caus my dad just finished installing my new turn- signal swich, and now i have brakelights again! yay!!!

Hi Everyone,

I just got home from Vegas about 30min ago...that was a long drive. LOL. But I made super super good time actually...I made it in 7hrs10min, normally it takes 8-8.5 hours....so that was cool. I had a GREAT time, totally was not ready to come home, and i'm really not ready to go to work tomorrow morning at 5:30am...errr I'll be working from 5:30-6pm for the rest of this week, and through wednesday of next week...Space, I need you to come work some hours for me...LOL J/K!

Jamie, I never have had a plate in the front of my car, and its never been an issue here, even though its illegal. Maybe the cops just have better things to do then worry about front license plates...you know, like catching all of us speeders who drive 80 and 90 or even 100 when the speed limit is 65...LOL

Well, I hope everyone has a great evening....

BTW, where is everyone today?

I have never been pulled over in Precious for not having my front plate on. I did ****** a used filler off of ebay for Silver, but it has to wait till I can afford to get the rest of the paint work done. I used to have the clear plastic cover over the rear plate, but decided to just take it off cause it started to yellow. That too is also illegal where I live.
