I've seen all these pictures of E55's and not nearly as many of the more sporty and eye catching SL500s....Everyone post your SL R230 pictures here
My dealer will NOT screw a plate into MY bumper under penalty of death. Front plates are required in Ma. and my dealer fastens them to the front lower black grill with black cable ties. A front plate is required for an ispection sticker. I removed the plate and tossed it in the boot when I picked up the car. I carry a few black cable ties in case I get stopped.scottcardwell - 6/22/2005 5:29 AM
okay quick question, in the US are you allowed to NOT have your license plate on the front of your car? as majority of you on here don't have them on the front, only the back.
can anyone clear this up? Espically you rod, for you have two....hahaha EXPLAIN YOURSELF! haha
Yup, if they want you bad enough they use it as an excuse to pull you over and search to the depth of hell. Kinda like the smell good tree hanging from the mirror being illegal at least in Maryland. I bet no one knew that. It might be a moving violation. Most rebels here just put the front tag in the window, but even that will get you pulled if your the right description!!!!!ever get stopped for not having one before?

I don't know, I'm ready to if needed to. We went on a run a few weeks ago, and a wide group of cars were present. There were 9 Benzes, F cars, L car, and a host of rice cars with very young drivers. We started out into heavy traffic, and the youngsters started racing and weaving in thick 80 mph traffic on 4 lanes. I camped out in the high speed lane and watched them cut and weave, pissing off a lot of Sunday moterist with cell phones. All of this foolish action gained them little ground, as I was able to observ them for many miles. When we got to out regrouping rest area the State Police arrived and got on their bullhorns with a warning to DRIVE SAFELY, WE HAVE RECIEVED MANY COMPLAINTS. I thanked them as they drove past. Many of the Benzes were without front plates. The police wrote up two very visibly parked TR-4s, one for no front plate and the other for shooting sparks from his muffler. I have a vid of the regrouping area. I can post it if you like.LovinSL600 - 6/25/2005 7:14 PM

Will the police actually let you fix the problem on the spot?
