Default Plates+cops=Grill kit. URGENT!

Well, I had my first encounter with the cops in my modded Civic. NOT COOL! Anyway, I only got a warning for not having my license plate mounted on the bumper. Hell, I had it in my frotn window. How he saw that it wasn't on the bumper God knows. I passed him, so he never saw the front except for looking behind him. Also it was 10pm so it was pitch black out.

I need to know of a way I can get some mesh for the front so I can mount the plate on it. I know there are mounts on the bumper, but only one set ot holes works, and they are the wide one's so the plates holes don't line up.

Basically, where can I get a NICE LOOKING grill and buying using PayPal??

Thanks,
Spike

Default New holes?

Where would I drill new holes?

I want a clean, non-conspicuous(sp?) job.

Please help so I don't end up actually getting a ticket!

Thanks,
Spike

grillcraft if you want premade ones
most people make theirs DIY
also the reasons for not having one in on yoru dash is cuz if you get in a accident that plate comes flying at you and cuts your ear off
so its smarter not to have one at all then to leave it on your dash

Damn your wheels are to small for that body kit. What happened to your 18" Advans?

Go to a dealership and get one of those trunk hanging license plate things and mount it under your hood.
