Front license plate bracket attachment location? How to buy steps that attach to the factory rock sliders?

In Maryland not having a front license plate is a primary offense and you will be pulled over in a heartbeat.

How do they know you aren’t from out of state? Wait for you to drive by and then look at your rear plate?

My wife and I both have, in Wisconsin. Both times with my tinted Milan. I think in my case, he just wanted to give the drug dog some fresh air -- asked me a ton of invasive questions, then had my car sniffed.

My wife, no idea. She wasn't speeding.


Meanwhile, I've been all over the country in my tinted Flex, no front plates, no problem. Maybe they assume it's a rental

Yes. If they see an MD tag on the rear and no tag on the front you’re getting pulled over and fined for it.

Don’t bet on it! Just another revenue stream for the state of Illinois. You might last three or four days before you get stopped.

Yep. That's a "good stop" all day long in MA... see a car go by without a front plate, check the back and if it's a MA registration... stop is valid.

What comes from the stop is highly dependent on the demeanor and history of the individual behind the wheel.

Not saying you'll get stopped every time, or get a ticket every time... but it's an open invitation here.

I grew up in North Carolina, so I understand an overbearing police state. Haha

I guess I kind of forgot about it living in Colorado now. The cops here seem so hands off and way less numerous in comparison.

Check this out, I think it might do the trick. Holds the plate flush against the bash plates. https://www.rubitrux.com/maximus-3-...b4A45QK7tHIbcPpyE7OTAH5UuCP-F0MQaAilEEALw_wcB

Nothing like blocking airflow to the intercooler

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I see no vents here.
Doesn't look like any airflow would be blocked to me.

Here's how the plate mounts against the bash plate of a jeep.
This appears to be a legal option in Texas, can't speak for other states.

Sorry no picture posting skills, but the link looked like it would place the plate in the center vent between the winch & the purple circle in the top picture.

TBH, I never considered the air intake problem when mounting center of the bumper 'til you brought it up. I was more so concerned about the ACC Radar in the center of the bumper. Figured mounting the plate there would render it obsolete, but obviously air intake is the bigger problem!
