Looks great. Of course, the police may have a different view.

Now all you need is a beach house there as well as here at home. Bet island cruise-ins are something.

I had a cop pull me over once for not running the legit front plate. It must have been a slow day for him.

Some states do not require a front plate so you can use whatever you want.

CA is not one of those, and apparently, neither is Ohio.

Arizona does not require a front plate, but it is illegal to have anything resembling a real plate from anywhere.

I'd think you'd be OK as I've seen virtually everything else on the fronts of GA vehicles. So, did you take a cruise and buy it? That's what I did, but I can't make myself put one on my truck as I like the "clean look."

We flew down and spent a week at the beach. This could be my last flight , as air travel has become to much of a hassle ,long lines , rude people , and high costs . We could take the panel or car and drive around this country , to see all the sites , for three weeks for less then this trip cost .
