^^^ HEY, NICE! Black is such a SWEET color when it's clean! Good Impact... mine just kind of "blends" into the background on the road.... VERY GOOD actually when speeding and avoiding detection... (not that I CONDONE such behavior, just an observation!)

Looks good!

I really hate the looks too. I recently got cited twice within 3 weeks. I had to go and pay an inspection fee at the local Sheriff's station. I also had to pay a fine, $10 for each ticket! I guess it's not that bad, but I'm not going to keep getting pulled over for it. During the inspection, I got cited for my tint. I had to remove the front 2 and also the windshield strip. Bummer, but I'm going to put the tint back on next weekend. The only good side to this is that I got my 2nd set of taillights tinted with the white section cut out. IMO, this looks much better than it all blacked out. I'll show some pics next weekend.

Leave it off and just pay the ticket!

I've learned that if I keep mine with me and attach it to the windshield (small suction cups) whenever I go into a metro LA area to park, it has worked just fine.

The key is the suction cups, because then it is considered "attached" to your car, where tossing it in the dash won't do.

BTW - nice ride - just get it lowered a bit (hey - somebody had to say it!) :lol:

yeah its good to have police friends

they save you money. they sign'em off for me and i just have to pay the $10... no need to remove or fix anything...

astro how much is the inspection fee? that must suck getting all those cites and having to remove and retint. oh cant wait to see those tails...

im actually gonna be in that area today about 2-3 or something.

back to topic. i've only got no front plates in chinatown. when i had my car parked outside on the street for no front plates. but other than that everywhere else i go. i get no hassle.

Hmmm... your policing agencies are militant out there...

I have taken ALL my front plates off, and only had a warning several times in 20+ years... on ONE of the warnings, the guys was a "mature" full-grown Ohio State Highway Patrol... he popped his trunk and pulled out the SPECIFIC SECTON CODE and everything to prove it as a mandatory requirement for me, and I assured him I would put it on right away... (and DID.... for awhile...)

I keep the Solara tag, bent and all, in my trunk... "...oh, YES officer... that got PULLED OFF in the AUTOMATED SOFT-CLOTH carwash at the Wapakoneta Shell recently... I was just looking for a good plate-frame to BETTER SECURE it to the front... sir...."

Haven't had to use it yet in 56k miles... but I'm READY! :wink:

(My MOTORCYCLE plates are "bent up" enought to create DOWNFORCE on the rear wheel... JUST enough angle to allow a polly to MAKE OUT the numbers from seated position in his car... the "TECHNICAL REQUIREMENT" according to a local enforcement friend. No hassles... except the time I got briefly "DRAFTED" pulling mid-triple digits just before exiting I-75... and then I saw him back there and he followed for 4 miles before pulling me over for... "plate hard to see"... and let me off with a warning... --> I heard his radio chatter from the "call-in" as I waited for him to run the plates, and the lady dispatcher said "NEGATIVE, doesn't match the description...", so he let me off... later I found out a local motorcyclist fled from police on a 3 county chase...)
