    Because front plates look like shit and Id rather not have to drill into my car just to make it easier on the cops?

    That’s how it’s done at the factory too.

    Wow no kidding.

      For fun I looked up how I’d have to mount a front plate and it’s just gross. I’d have to drill holes into the front…

      Wow no kidding.

        Nice to see you really wanted to keep this post going lol

        Almost as if there’s a difference between

        An assembly line making perfectly centered holes into a part that they’ve yet to finish painting and detailing

        versus

        my ass crouching down and praying I can get four clean pilot holes in and by some miracle the paint not start flaking

        Not to mention what if I put the plate slightly too high and it catches more wind and starts making some annoying ass whistling

          Lol my concern would be it getting enough wind behind it and ripping it right off the bumper.
