Your lucky. I cruise by cops w/ no front plate and get pulled over w/ the 3rd degree. Cops like: “Why don’t you have a front plate?” Then “Do you know how fast you were going? You know that radar detector mounted there is an obstruction of view.” This kind of bullshit happened all the time so I finally put the front plate on because I was tired of paying $50 fines in Amherst court. Sux!
EDIT: I see tons of Vette’s driving around w/ no front plate and when I talk to the owner they always say that cops never bother them. Damn prejudice cops!
Wait a minute, maybe I’m missing something here. I’ve been at work for over 8 hrs and I’m getting delusional from talking to all these stupid customers. What do you mean by take it off completely? The plastic piece that has the bird on it comes off and there’s 2 holes for mounting the plate behind it. What am I taking off completely? Are you talking about taking the bird bracket off and just not putting a front plate on? Sorry, I really need to get out of work so I can think clearly. 35 minutes to go and I’m out of this hell hole until Monday!
ummm, no. Its not like your GTO where there is a bracket attached to the bumper. Firebirds have a recession in the front bumper for the license plate. There is a filler plate that goes in there if you dont have the front plate. If you left it with nothing it would look very obvious. You need the filler plate for it to look right.
I took the front plate bracket off my old firebird for awhile and it looked much better, but it was the 93-97 body style.
I was going by that, i forgot they changed that style in 98+. my bad. I guess they just dont like you
ive been pulled ovewr a few times for no front plate. never a ticket though. i just tell the i got in an accident and it fell of and the new bracket is coming in from ebay. theyere like “oh okay”.
