I find outward visibility is already limited in the C6, doesn't that block a good portion of your view?
I'm going with the No Plate solution even though it's illegal.
Do they still have annual safety inspections and stickers required in Nebraska?

Fortunately the location of the plate does not block any visability. Put a piece of cardboard there in your car and you will see. Were it an inch higher, it would block the sight over the fender.

Nebraska doen not have annual inspections or safety stickers. I know that this solution is not as good as no plate at all but I think it might discourage some stops. I will only drive the car to car shows for the first year.

You will probably attract more attention this way. More importantly, god forbid you get into a serious accident and if the plate is not mounted securely in its present location, it will go flying through your interior slicing up anything in it's path. Not a pretty picture.

Yes, I think you should rethink your decision about the plate.

What's the fine for no front plate in Nebraska?
In my state, it's $101...that's why Red Racer wears a front plate nowadays. Had the fine been in the $25 - $40 range, I may have ignored that law. But over $100 makes me want to comply and save those $$ for some cool mods.
P.S. That plate location could cause some serious damage to your forehead in case of accident. You should probably move it.
