Anyways, remember the license plate(s) on his 7 series... they would flip over to reveal a different plate. I was thinking, just put no plate on the other side, then there would be no plate when you flip it over. It would be cool if someone could fabricate something like this.

I mean come on... they had to walk around in front of all the cars to check if I had a front plate.
$35 later I still won't put on my front plate and I won't put it on my new Z when it gets in too... F U Glendale!

How Long ?
I curious to see how long we can go without getting stopped for no plate. Going on 3 months without a sniff.
I wonder what the drill is is you do get stopped. I'm in Oregon.
Keep on Z'n
Still Jumpin' for Joy!!

Hi ZBart I have owned "Z's" for 29 years. I'm 54 years old and served 2 tours in Vietnam between 1968-71. I was a morse intercept operator and later did ARDF.. Airborne radio Direction Finding.. That's what the plate "ARDF" stands for. I spent 1 tour in Pleiku and split another between DaNang and Hue-Phu Bai. I've been back to Vietnam 3 times in the past 5 years.. Planning another trip for 2003..

Driving without front plate in CA
I've had my 350Z since September 2nd. I received my "first" speeding ticket from the CHP two weeks ago...not a word about the plate. A bit cranky about my passing speed 83 in a 50 mph, he should have seen me coming out of Lambs Canyon five minutes earlier...the car loves to triple digit. Be safe out there... CA lic "Warp 10."

I should have said "about the missing front plate."
"I've had my 350Z since September 2nd. I received my "first" speeding ticket from the CHP two weeks ago...not a word about the plate."

In CA it's just a "fix it" ticket. So tie wrap that plate to your grill until the good officer signs off on the tkt. i keep the front bare - better aerodynamics and all that. did it with my Rx7 for a decade w/o any problems. I'm more concerned about speeding tickets, but i guess that's why i got a Z.
