Don't have my CHL yet, but I got pulled over yesterday for no front plate. I've been in 3 front end accidents (1 my, rest others at fault) & they no longer make a bracket for the '96 Impala SS I drive. You have to buy it used, but everyone is looking for one.

I was on my way to work, saw a DPS Trooper just turn off his lights & the car he already had pulled over merging in with traffic. Since he was looking backwards to merge, he saw I was missing my plate. My plate is on my dash board, right where the windshield meets the dash. I've been stopped 3 times in last 5-6 years for it. Each time resulting in a warning. I told the Trooper about the accidents & that the aftermarket . . . market . . . for my car type is primarily mechanical vs body. They make a bumper with a moulded license plate area, but thats like $400-$450. I need bumpers, but I'm waiting until after the first of the year for when I can afford it.

Funny thing, he comes back & says, "Here's a warning, but you've been warned about this before. Get it fixed. Thanks for your cooperation." Didn't realize the warnings were tracked!
