Just surfing tonight, I came down with the f**n flu - I just found this site - a holy moly this is great news. i just got my '05 mustang in Aug and I asked the dealer not to punch the front bumper. I had a '00 GT and I was pulled over by a city cop and written a warning to have the plate put on in 10 days.
This is great news...I don't have to worry about it anymore Hee heeeeeeeeee.

Damn...lived there 15 years and have lost count of how many state troopers pulled me over for no front plate. Well i guess there will be alot of cleaner looking front bumpers now.
