In CA it don't matter what year your vehicle is, if the plate is obscured, even by a trailer ball, it is technically illegal. If I remember correctly you are in IL, so looking up the law is the only way to say whether you are good or not.
Abe, what you said is not true in all states, in CA you don't need to add seat belts or two tail lights based on year, but in Iowa, where I am from, you need to retrofit seat belts no matter what was original (per the vehicle code there).
Just saying giving legal advice per where you live is not always a good idea.

So let's think about back in the day. Even if the bumper was optional, wouldn't the law require the design to make the plate viewable? It does'nt make sense to me. I know we can place the plate where it's viewable by putting it on the bumper or elsewhere, but not where it was meant to be.
