Damn dealer punched holes in the front for the license plate, in the meantime, I made a temp. fix to them
Thanks to fahrenheit350 for the part.
They're Hillman Ford Push Fasteners that I picked up at Lowes for like $.80

Nothing kills the clean lines of the Z like a licence plate screwed to the front bumper.
First thing I did to my Z was to pull it off, get the holes filled/painted and a clear bra installed.

It worked and he let me go.

I have never had a problem either and i drive through southlake, grapevine and keller, and you know those bastards are just looking for a reason, i am surprised he got one in richardson.....
ZeetheBest the fix will look good once you get the plugs painted, thats actually a pretty damn good idea.....

i got a ticket in my civic just last week for not having a front plate..i told the ******* cop that i didn't have holes drilled in the front and that i would take care of it and he still wrote me up...luckily i had an OLD pic of my car with the plate on so i took it to court, showed the judge, was wearing my badge that identified me as a city employee, and she dismissed it. that badge has saved me hundreds of times. wooOO =]
