Pretty swift idea...

[Cargo8]

hmmm. good idea kinda. if a cop sees you tho how do u get it to come out if your driving??

[RAudi Driver]

You don't! When you get pulled over, you tell the cop that your car was in a car show over the weekend and that you just forgot to pull your plate back out. You pull it out in front of him and he says, "Have a nice day".

That front plate coupled with some photoblocker spray, for the rear, and your pretty set for the red light cameras.

They also have some hinged plate holders for the rear that can be activated from inside the car.

Thats sweet. Haven't had a front lic. for over 6 years on a see me now yellow vette, a miata, and now my S4 and have never been stopped. Many times had police look at my front and they have never done anything. Only one ticket for $25 when I was parked in a public parking lot by parking enforcement. I know if I'm pulled over for anything it will also get tacked on.

Same. I've never run a front plate on any car I've ever owned and never been ticketed once ever.

Would like to see one on a B6

[MOFSTEEL]

Ive always wanted one of those push bottom license plate flippers.

LOL! is that one voice activated!?!?!?!?


Ed, that looks dope! and yeah, it would mainly be to avoid the tickets when you park. A la REDHS4

[Eddie Man]

What about that grillage...
No rings. Yeah or nah?

[channad]

I like the rings on the front.

[Cargo8]

aight so whats installation like? i see the slidey thing off of that but what do u bolt it to on the underside?

[Eteled]

Yeah, and the front plate will help dislodge the eight year old's body from your car after you mow him down. Spray some more photoblocker on the car to help hide the blood. Don't forget to kill his mom and you're all set. No ticket for you!

sweet...

I hope you (or anyone else) get caught intentionally running a red light and the cop that pulls you over has had a really bad day.

Did we have a bad plate experience as a child?

Eteled is not too keen on people running red lights and possibly endangering innocent lives. I can see his point, but I’m sure RAudi would not want that either. Who would? No one is condoning running red lights, just discussing car stuff.

[channad]

yeah, that was kinda graphic. I don't think anyone is going to run red lights. I think people are just annoyed at cops being lazy. ie cameras and posted radar signs. give it some time, and those posted radar signs will have cameras mounted and take pictures when you are doing X above posted speed limit. Bottom line is police are doing everything they can to up the ticket numbers without doing any real work.

I think running reds and stop signs is really bad btw.

[jerrym]

interesting mod..
but i dont need plates
LOL

[b00st]

photospray is garbage. it doesn't work. not even if you use the whole can. tried 2 different sprays on 2 different plates....all it did was make the plate shinier.

[wwb4]

This beats photoblocker spray for the rear IMO:

Dude, these are excellent ideas. I'm assuming you're a professional? So what's the best way to burn a body so that they can't even be identified by their dental records? Is it about 6 gallons of deisel fuel in a porcelain bathtub?

I would think that if you're out mowing down innocent people with your car (which most of us do regularly), that you would need to keep killing the Cops that came after you instead of just killing more innocent people (Mom, Child, etc.) Maybe I'm wrong..

All kidding aside, I really don't see the point in this unless you're just openly breaking the law on a regular basis. Personally I don't want to risk paying $3000+ a year in car insurance just to blow through a yellow/red light. You can easily get out of a photo-ticket. Not worth the mods required to the car if you ask me. Plus that whole killing eight year olds and their Mom's thing that Mr. Personality brought up.

[Cargo8]

well the front plate is worth is perhaps for a looks enhancement. most users agree that it looks much better / cleaner without a license plate there (with filler) and then it can be pulled out when parked, etc so to not get a ticket.

you think if u got puulled over by a cop specifically for front plate you could get away with "o i was just at a show (or similar) and forgot to pull it back out" and show him the plate?

First of all you're an idiot for even saying that. Secondly, you're pretty mean to want to see another fellow ziner suffer misfortune.

BTW, I hold a Class A Drivers License. I would probaby be the last person to even think or running a red light. However, running over your 8 year old....hmmmm

That was actually my real intention for the plates as there is a MKV GTI and a B7 here at the house. Both cars have beautiful front ends. I guess that i got a little carried away on the whole plate thing as i started watching all the plate videos on you tube. My bad...

[nealRlett]

...Don't forget to kill his mom and you're all set. No ticket for you!

-eteled

Killing moms on Mother's Day is just not right. Did we have to say that?
At least wait a day or two..

[va-terps4]

Put a linear actuator on that sucker. Next time you get pulled over, just push a button and the plate pops out! "What do you mean I don't have a front plate, officer?"

[Eteled]

I wrote the above to be graphic and make a point. It is very, very well written as I'm sure all of you had a double take while reading it. That was my intent. Get you all to think.

Call me an idiot RAudi, I don't care. I read an idiotic post and replied in kind. My post wasn't ment to be a personal attack. Traffic control measures are ment to save lives. Enough said.

I'm just keeping it real and karma is a b!tch.

o.k. sorry for the personal attack.

"Very very well written"?

FYI, red light cameras are not always accurate and don't always tell the real story. They may help save lives but I think that cities are putting them in to generate revenue.

I'll bet if the red light cameras just stopped people from running red lights but didn't generate revenues for the cities that they were in, they wouldn't be installed in those cities. That being said, they are revenue generators and I will do my best to keep my money in my pockets and out of theirs.

BTW, why is Karma a bitch and why do you have to end on a sour note?

[REDHS4]

what part of Sacramento you live in??

East, in Citrus Heights. Known for tight speed enforcement. Which I don't have a problem with, most of the time.

[jaykato]

Eteled is lame.

He wishes more police were on the roads to write tickets for 70 in a 65, wants increased LIDAR usage, and to make radar detectors illegal in all 50 states.

BTW, I've been thinking about the usefulness of one of those forever. Never seen one in real life, very nice.

:x let there be fire?

[channad]

so, back on topic, I like this flipper thing. I looked under my car, and I don't know if there's a place to bolt it onto. I'd have to cut through that plastic.

[Cargo8]

^^ +1 anyone know how it attatches?

[wkornfeld]

If I don't want a cop to see my plates, I just do approx 150 right past him.... oh, you mean for our S4's. I was thinking about that damn bike again.

[RAudi Driver]

Man, you're way too nice.

My name is Ed and I maybe if i change my name to Evil E, I can cure this niceness. E
