How many of you are running no front plate?

How many of you guys are running no front plate+tint?

Reason I ask is because I used to run without a plate and had dark tint on all my cars for the last four years.... but last summer just by bad luck I got 4 tickets so I put the plates on.

I have dark tint all around+windshield but I have a DMV form so I can't get a ticket for that and multiple PBA .

Was wondering how many of you guys run without front plates+tint and what is your luck. AND if you do get a ticket for front plate how much do you guys pay? I still have to pay one lol.

I know all the cops around here, CNJ, but knock on wood I haven't received a ticket since I purchased the car and have never had a front plate. YMMV on this one I think, if the cop feels like being a dick he's gonna get you for something

It was most likely around 55 exit for poughkeepsie? I know that trooper, hes a real dickhead. Surprised he didn't get you for your tints lol. I am just curious because I got a ticket around there that is pending until May for no plate, wanna see how much I have to pay. Remember the court?

No front plate and 5% all around.. Was fine for a long time til I got my first ticket 3 weeks ago. Since then, my town's cowardly PD has recognized my car and pulls me over every single time they have a chance and I've gotten 2 more tickets since. So far 2 tint tickets 1 front plate ticket.. But I'm never giving in

i don't remember the name of the court, though.. i still haven't mailed it in


but what do you have to do to get DMV to say your tints are okay?

No front plate + tint for one and a half years with a lot of driving in manhattan. 2 tickets so far. Both for tints. Though i do carry a tow hook with front plate in my boot all the time.
