Unfortunately I registered the F10 in my state of residence which requires a front plate. Few years ago, I wouldnt care, but Ive noticed lately that cops in my area are cracking down on this, mostly in thanks to idiots that drive around in low riding Hondas with wings and deep tint windows. I drove by a shopping center once where these kids like to gather and the cops waved me in and asked me for registration etc. He even wrote me up for tints (legal in my previous state) which is fine, its the law, what was I going to do. But I;d rather not keep getting waved down for something as trivial as a front plate and paying $50 fix it tickets when they need to meet quota, its just a waste of my time.

As much as I hate the front plate, I think the US Millworks tow hook mount is the best looking way to go about it. Its easy enough to remove and i dont have horrible holes in my bumper.

I actually thought about removing the plate for the pics, but my tow hook cover was at home.
