I have to agree with Igovert on the cop issue. I was a cop for 3 years. I hated some of the laws that we had to enforce and if I could I would let people slide on SOME things. While there are cops out there that get a kick out of being an ass, most of them are just doing their job. I must say though that cars do look much better with the front plate off. Anyway most of the time a cop is going to read it is from behind.
