I do know that a front plate here must be visible and on the front of the car. I had an 88 thunderbird that did not have a front mount anywhere, so I threw the plate in the front windshield. When I got pulled over, I asked the officer to look at the front of the car and tell me where I should mount it...he did not ticket me, but suggested that I should look into some way to mount the plate.

I ended up bending the plate to match the nose of the car and mounting it on the lower air dam. Likely that was illegal for defacing the plate....but whatever.....

Other than that, I have seen states with minimum height for the bumper and body panels from the ground, number of lights that must be visible, color of the lights etc. The best thing to do is look up your local motor vehicle code....

But we could hear some good ones here.
