Placed my front plate on my windshield pics

99mustanggtman · November 24th, 2008, 04:45 PM

Got the idea from Grave's car.

I think it looks much better in that spot.

tayboo24 · November 24th, 2008, 04:47 PM

haha thats funny. your bumper will look alot cleaner imo.

tayboo24 · November 24th, 2008, 04:47 PM

you might miss that space shuttle coming in from your right, but it's not a big deal.

1FUN4RD · November 24th, 2008, 04:49 PM

Is that a legal alternative??
In Iowa you cant have anything in your windsheild. Not even a handycap thing hanging from the mirror..

GTsetGO · November 24th, 2008, 04:49 PM

what he said. i would check and see if that is legal where you are at.

It blocks my vision to the right when I put it too low on the windshield. Its held on by 4 suction cups, so I can move it around wherever. I may try a lower spot and try to make it work.

I'll just tell the cop that the holes in the bumper are cross threaded and the screws won't fit properly(which is actually true)

btw: I used black plugs to fill in the holes in the bumper. It'll have to do until I get my 99/01 cobra front bumper.

I work in the Auto Glass, And Auto Glass repair business. What you might not realise is that you just put a projectile on your windshield that could possibly kill you. Immagine you get in a wreck the air bad on the pass side deploys against the windshield and sends the plate hurling at you at 100 MPH, you are de-capitated

I would strongly not advise you to put the plate their. Not only is it illegal 100% guarantee you that, its just something thats going to end up hurting somone... if you like your plate their that much get an outside graphic that looks identical to your plate that is a sticker for your windshield.

Trying to look out for you,

Welcome to MM haha.

bullitt5576 · November 24th, 2008, 11:55 PM

i think the chances of the airbag hitting the plate just right to send it hurtling straight at your neck for a decapitation is pretty minimal IMO

AggieStang · November 24th, 2008, 11:59 PM

The guy works at autoglass though. That would be some Final Destination shit lol.

bullitt5576 · November 24th, 2008, 11:59 PM

Lol I'll get to them tomorrow, damn rain!

99mustanggtman · November 25th, 2008, 02:13 AM

Yeah I decided just to throw the plate in the back seat.

Seabee · November 25th, 2008, 02:52 AM

just put in on the bottom right corner, drop it down a bit, ive seen that done plenty of times, even in cali, if you wanna be a lil safer ya know.

Genevieve! · November 26th, 2008, 01:21 AM

the only problem with taking the plate off the front is now you have a big empty square in the middle of your bumper.

i would say try in the middle as low as you can go

MustangMatt96GT · November 26th, 2008, 02:32 PM

svtkidd23 · November 26th, 2008, 02:44 PM
