The bending of the plate option looks hella sweet! If pulled over, can always say, "Oh, must'a been that parking curb as you bend it back up! Next day bend it back down! Genius! Sorry plates are required in your state. In Nevada, plates required in front only if factory/dealer bracket is installed.
But they will throw you in jail if you have hollow points in your handgun...
I have the Sto n Sho that I bought at CJ Pony Parts, and am happy with it. You're required to have a front plate in TX, BUT here in Houston, I've only been pulled over for it 1x.
On the highways, outside of town, I've been pulled over by TX DPS 4x for no front plate they said, then they tell me how fast I was going over the limit.....
...seriously!?
So, when going on a hunting trip or out of town, the plate appears, and in town, it disappears. Takes longer to walk to the truck than it does to install or remove. Love it!

I actually thought about this whole front plate issue the other day after I had some lights installed on the truck, and one of them went right where the license plate would be. I've seen plates mounted to the left of the original location, but I have no idea where the Adaptive Cruise Control sensors are (plus whatever else they mount behind the freaking bumper).

Yeah, I can't really argue too much with that, but it allows better airflow to the intercooler so I'll pay that price. WA still requires a front place, and I don't want to have to worry about putting it on/taking it off depending on how/where I'm driving that day as our brother in TX does. Plus, show me a front license that really doesn't look like ass...
I dunno, BadmOtO...off symmetry like that hurts my eyes. Kinda like automakers still putting centered (fake) hood scoops on cars, even though probably 99.99% have the air box on one side or another. Yet no one uses off-center scoops that could actually direct fresh air into the airboxes. GM/Chevy seem closest w/their HD diesels, but those channel air thru the hood into the air box in the rear (I think) of the engine bay. At any rate, the off-center placement just doesn't appeal to me. But if it works for YOU, on YOUR truck, that's all that really matters.
