My concern with this method is the radiator cooling.
Not really an issue with our car. We have plenty of cooling.

I can't even mount my front plate if I want to.
When I got my ticket the cop said "Ever heard of Double sided 3M tape?"

Yes it does.


No it doesn't .

You drive an s2000.

You're going to tell me someone isn't going to jock your car, or some hot breezy isn't going to break her neck jocking just because you have a front plate?

You're trippin.

You'll get laughed at more when you're pulled over, than if you had a front plate.

If every S2K owner (in the Bay Area, anyway) just obeyed the law and put on the front plates on his/her car, S2K's and their owners won't look as "hot" to cop-pers as they do now.

I know it's wishful thinking but there is hope, I think(??).

While I could care less if some hot breezy likes my car or not, I do care how it looks, and the S2000 looks like arse with the front license plate on. It looks like a complete after thought and ruins the curve of the front bumper.

You seem to be very concerned what people think of you, I don't. If they want to laugh, then more power to them, but the shoe is bound to be on the other foot at some point.

Well today I got bored so I decided to put my front plate back on and spent less than $10 for the things I used...Its not the best idea but I like it so just thinking that I would share it with everyone...

Doesn't look too bad. Now that hood looks new though.

Vu is right, that doesn't look bad at all. Do share what you used. Hood looks good, just have to powdercoat rims black so you'll be murdered out.
