Im not sure if this is the right forum but i just got a ticket for not having a front plate and tint on my side windows (its the abosolute lightest tint you can get all around......im in CA). I have a wings west front end on a 98 accord coupe, and i need suggestions and pics of where im supposed to put a front plate preferably without drilling into the kit.

Now i have to go get this tint taken off and its such a waste of time, i havent gotten a ticket in four years and then they give me one for the most minute crap. I would try myself but i tried before and it took me hours to take it off one side with a razor blade.

You can get a license plate relocator and offset the plate to one side:

Mines hanging from some stainless steel wire attached to the front crash bar since I'm ghetto with no front bumper.

Well with the relocator i wouldnt be able to move it much because the front air dam of the wings west kit is very small. I guess im going to have to drill into it unless i can find some way to use steel wire lol.

Yeah, CA sucks, i wanted to take mine off but cant. I see some people just put it in their windshield inside lol. And wtf? you got ticket for tinted side windows? I thought you could tint all windows really dark except no tint on the front windshield. You should look it up. Workkkk time.. later..
