I did it for ages on my old car. It is illegal but you will be unlucky to get pulled as the cops can't see it when they're behind you

thats because old motorbikes had a metal plate sidewards facing on the front

also doubles up as a nice blade for when u drive into someone and rip them apart

thats partly why they stopped using them

i drove my 206 (it was shite so i sold it) around for about 2 months or so with no front plate,after i had the front bumper sprayed.didnt want to drill into the new paint! altho i did live out of town.
i agree they look good without it, but the cops wudnt leave ya alone if you did

Mates been driving about with his in the front passenger side of the windscreen for a couple of months easy. Even got stopped by the police for some Drink-drive awareness thing, and they didnt say anything .

Oh, and its a rear plate, not a white one
