Default They're heeeeeeere!!!

My NNIAL8R tags FINALLY came in..It took two months...but worth the wait...I know, I know, many of you are saying "Hey, that's not a C5"...but Im a C5 lover and owner first and foremost...and truth be known, I make a lot more posts on the C5 side of the CF than the C6 Z-06........Besides, this wraps up my N-CROWD...

Understood, Texas is the same. I saw the factory supplied bracket, if you will, for the C6 a few weeks ago and didn't think very much of it.

I wonder if it would work to use a retractable front plate? Auto retracts from a switch you can get to while driving. Just leave the plate in all the time. If you get pulled over wait until the officer it walking up to the car at your window and push the button to put it back out. He says he is pulling you over due to no front plate. You look suprised and ask to look at the front and it is there. Officer drives off, no ticket??

Wouldnt really work for me...check out my profile....Besides, it kind of defeats the purpose of getting personalized plates on not running both of them...JMO
