Nice pics C55motion!

I noticed the front plate mounted on your front bumper. Did the dealer already have this done? I heard California requires a front license plate but my car didn't come with this nor any pre-drilled mounting holes. I'm glad it didn't b/c I personally don't like it but I'm wondering if I will ever get pulled over for a fix-it-ticket?

True to an extent. Since my business covers downtown L.A. to LAX, I have a front plate.

But my wife was pulled over by the CHP for no front plate in the Pasadena area, so keep in mind they will enforce it whenever they feel like it. Stupid law, but that's Kalifornia

So I wonder if my dealer would drill the holes for free, if I ever needed them to in case of a ticket.

PS I would like to think that a cop would have better things to do than to pull over a car for not displaying a front plate.

Actually, they don't.

My wife does not fit the description of your common everyday criminal. She's very petite and had my two kids in the back seat when she was pulled over by CHiPs. Meanwhile, people are being shot on L.A. freeways....but I digress
