but judging by some of your posts you may not want to give cops reasons to pull your *** over



about the plate placement.. on the Evo it looks great the taco is ok.. but the ranger, sorry it just doesn't fit in. take that biach off

This thread got me thinkin what about the plate mounted center but behind the bumper. You will still be able to see most of the plate...

Unless you moved it out of the way so it doesn't block the intercooler (LOL), it just looks off. Usually it's moved because it serves a purpose (i.e: being in the way of something) and usually because that State requires a front plate and they (the owner) need to have it on there.

Definatly looks out of place. But it's your truck.

I've got mine on the lower valence. I personally think it looks pretty sweet, I plan on putting the 3/4 kit on it, so it'll be like an inch and a half off the ground. It does catch curbs and parking blocks alot tho

Neg to all 3....

who puts a front plate on a evo?? Looks like crap, just pay for a ticket every once in a while

the taco and your truck look out of symmetry with the plate to one side


take it off

You know.....I rocked no plate for a long time......as it got ripped off when I was up the mountain wheelin'. That was my excuse to cop.....only pulled over once though for it. I really prefer no plate...but oregon sucks....and we gotta have it. I plan on mounting it on my skid plate when i make a new skid. Right now it's kinda funny.....I've got 3-09 tags on the back, and 3-07 tags on the front!. lol.


07sport.....I hope you moved it back to stock.
