I didn't have a front plate when i had my z, drove for 2 years without one. I had a cop pull me over one time and warn me for it, i told him i just got my new v1 front lip and bumper repainted and they were making a custom braket for the license plate and he let me go.

VA law requires it, so I have it. Bought a nice, simple silver-chrome license-plate holder, and it looks fine.
Check your state law; if everyone around you has a front plate, you probably need to have one too.

I live in VA too. I have some pretty dark tinted windows, and live in an area where there is a bunch of old white people, so the cops don't bother me.
If the cops found out I was a young black guy, then it would be a different story.

Just today, I drove on the freeway feeder with a police car on the side of the road doing radar and I drove past him. Two months ago, a Department of Public Safety car drove in the opposite direction. As I drove by, he made a 180 and pulled behind my back. From the look of his eyes, I can see he was checking my plate. At the next green light, he drove 2 lanes to the right and went somewhere else because he found nothing on my record. I've driven through many speed traps, in front and in back of police cars, none has stop me for no front license plate- knock on wood. Main thing is do what is comfortable because it is illegal in most states and you can get pulled over.
