are you allowed to put your front plate on the dash so that it's still visible from the front?... or is that illegal?

what if there are no existing holes in your front bumper? couldnt you use that as an excuse as to why your license plate it on ur dash rather than on your bumper?

Yea, I fought the front plate battle several times. I eventually just did up a custom bracket for my front plate. By the law, it just says you have to display a plate in the front, it doesn't say anything about being visible. So, you couldpossibly get away with mounting it near horizontally as to keep from restricting airflow.
