Wait - I almost forgot! This mod cost me more than 15 bucks.

I removed my front licence plate to install it, and somehow (don't ask how) I lost the plate.

I got nabbed by the police in a routine traffic stop / roadside safety dragnet a year ago and was ticketed for the missing plate.

So in fact it cost me more like $110 total.
