I see a front license plate ticket in my future when I get my Kuruma bumper eventually.

My previous car which I had leased, I drove it around for 3 years without ever putting the license plates on. It saved my as$ a bunch of times when I was running late for work and had to get in the carpool lanes....cameras couldnt catch me. Ive gotten a warning about it twice from cops. Another time I got pulled over for it, the cop got a call on his radio and had to leave quick without issuing me the ticket. And another time, it got me out of a speeding ticket. I got pulled over for driving fast and the cop said he will just cite me for no plates instead of the speeding. Lol

Thats los Angeles for you lol they never make a big deal for small things like plates
I never ever had front license plates on none of my cars

The plate has to be physically attached to the car somehow without zipties I THINK I overheard someone last time not 100% sure.

Yup...the plate needs to be attached with hardware. They make sure to look at it during inspection.

Fab up some kinda bracket that attaches to the bottom of the bumper...underneath the car. Put your plates on it...pass the inspection, then remove everything again.

There are companies out there that produce these "temporary" brackets for license plates. My neighbor has one on his WRX. He probably paid 10x more than what he could have bought the materials for but you know it works....

You lucky folks on the other side of the state where police have real crime to deal with.

If I took my front plate off I guarantee I'd get pulled over TODAY.

I did nothing to the G today, well I take that back, I LOOKED at the layer of 2 weeks of road grime/rain/ash from fired in Canadia on it and got sad because I won't have time this weekend to wash it. Dirtiest the car has ever been since I owned it.

Leave the dirt and ash on there. Its good for the paint because it blocks the UV rays from the sun

Changed my alternator (old one tested bad) after going through my grounds didn't work and putting the original fluid back in the car as it still looks fresh. Followed FSM to the letter, but still no hot air coming out of the heater. I've tried using the bleeder to release pressure while the engine is still hot, letting air out until coolant comes out. I've repeated this process about 8 cooldown cycles now, and there's still no heat. I've squeezed the hoses to get bubbles out, I can still hear air but no bubbles come up, after each of the 8 cycles. Temp gauge is stable during extended revving.

Do I just need to keep doing this over and over? I've been at it for a solid 3 or 4 hours over the course of the day...

Have you used a spill free funnel to bleed all the air? Have you bled air at the rear coolant hose bleed point?
