[????? ????]

I?m surprised that no one has mentioned an option specifically allowed by Californian law. https://licenseplatewrap.com/

I have a Corvette, The state can stick it up their azz. Most cops and CHP i know say they don't bother on certain cars and in fact, if you pass the attitude test for a moving violation, they might just use that to give you something. Usually a warning.

The only one i ever got was while it was parked.

I vaguely remember that there is also some CA-approved sticker-plate that can be used on the front to overcome the wind-drag properties of front plates...

Yup, here's a link I found that says it may be possible as a pilot program...

Can you just pay the fine and not fix it?

I initially did pay the fine - $121... but I took a photo of the fix...and they refunded me $111..

I definitely left the CA plate on the front.......

That is rare!
Tesla model S front plate mount is double sided tape, which everyone takes them off.
Model 3 and y doesn't even come with the mount attached on the bumper, but they give you one incase you choose to put one on.

I don't know how they can even write these tickets being that a Tesla or a Corvette doesn't even come with the option to mount a front license plate any longer

Drill 4 holes.

i saw another tesla with a front licence plate today this one was red (last one was blue) still saw 2 white ones without though one had a dealer plate so i guess it was new and waiting on plates

ive been seeing fewer one light gmc and chevys lately too(you know the ones with one daytime running lights burned out)

In 2004, I bought a brand new Nissan Frontier.
They gave me the bracket.
I never mounted it, because I'm lazy.
When I sold it in 2019, I still hasn't mounted it.
Never got a ticket.
Went through several "impaired driver check points" in those years, never had an officer mention it.
Got a speeding ticket in it once at a speed trap (fought and beat it), officer never mentioned the plate.

Don't be a stupid, mouthy peckerhead at a traffic stop and you'll probably never have to worry about it.

That being said, if you don't mount it, it is a legal reason for a cop to stop you, even if you do nothing else wrong.

Your mileage may vary.

My car doesn't have a spot to mount it either. When I got the car I had to sign a waiver letting the dealership off the hook because I didn't want them to drill into the bumper.

My vanity plate is mounted using this mount:

If you already have that bracket why not just stick the official plate on it go get it signed off pay the 25.00 processing fee and be done with it?

Then you can simply put the other plate back on once completed.

Someone approached me to sign off a cite with a Tesla (which I did not), he told me he could not put a front plate because it would affect sensors for the auto pilot. I found that interesting. I don?t know much about those cars, but if those vinyl plates become a thing I guess that would be a great application for it.
