    Front euro plate or no plate at all?

    I've had these euro plates with nice holders in my garage for a while and decided to put them on today. They look great but I don't know if I will leave them on due to the attention they bring. I've been pretty lucky so far without any front plate. Let's say the cops weren't a factor. Would you prefer euro plates or nothing at all?

        In WA we require a front plate so using one looks more normal than not, and looks better IMO. Whats the rule in Cali?

            Front US plate, euro plate = asking to get pulled over.

                  Yea, you'll get pulled over for having having a euro plate up front only.
                  And covering it with your CA plate on top looks awkward.
                  Idk about the window thing.

                    I wouldn't do both on the front either, too much plate action.

                    The windows just how i have mine. Im not really recommending it, but i like mine there

                        I like how the Euro plates look on the car. You can tell they manufactured the car around the plate and it looks right at home. Alright what if the cops weren't a factor. Would you say a euro plate looks better than nothing at all?
