Front license plate issue....

As you might know, bought a Florida E320 that requires no front plate. The front of this car is so beautiful, I hate to ugly it up with a bracket and plate. Any ideas? I have not been pulled over here in Ohio where it is required. Is there some type of temporary type of holder that can be removed at will?

None that I've come across. I say you leave it off until TOLD otherwise! I believe the the worse you can get is a fix-it ticket.

i agree with MBZ12. if you get a fixing ticket then just use a double sided tape put on the front plate find a cop have him/her sign your ticket and then remove the front plate again. no holes. . but what i've notice cops don't really bother Mercedes

front plate

I think you should run a front plate all the time if your state requires it...a friend of mine two years ago did not run a front plate on his Q45 got pulled over because of it, he had 3 drinks in about two hours, the cop said he smelled alcohol and my friend blew a .08... got a dui,spent a few hours in jail, and cost him about 10 grand.
I guess you could say he should not of been driving but none the less that is a stiff price to pay for no front plate.
Or what if you are late for a meeting or something important and you get pulled over for no plate IMO it just ain't worth it...run the plate.
