GOT2B GM Posted September 21, 2006 Report Posted September 21, 2006 So...I went to the junkyard and picked up a license plateholder from a 90-96 GP sedan, to use on the front of my TGP. I was told by Jeff (kuntzie) that it should work, but not all 4 of the mounting tabs of the bracket match the contour of the bumper cover. Does anyone have the front plate holder GM part number? Is it a TGP specific part? I was messing around with the sedan plate holder and came up with this as a possible option....what do you guys think? (Its just held on with small c-clamps in the pics) My garage office Quote
kuntzie Posted September 21, 2006 Report Posted September 21, 2006 matt i was told by my dads buddy that we *might* be able to claim vintage status on our cars, get vintage plates (only one) then we dont got to worry about the front plate.. he says all cars over 16 years old can get it if a rare or valuable car Quote
GOT2B GM Posted September 21, 2006 Author Report Posted September 21, 2006 That would be perfect! Can you still get personalized plates if you have a vintage plate? Quote
kuntzie Posted September 21, 2006 Report Posted September 21, 2006 That would be perfect! Can you still get personalized plates if you have a vintage plate? yes you can..... BUT it can only be 6 characters Quote
GOT2B GM Posted September 25, 2006 Author Report Posted September 25, 2006 ended up mounting it in the stock location..... Mine's the far one Quote
Addicted To Boost Posted September 27, 2006 Report Posted September 27, 2006 I took my front plate off. I don't know if we here in Minnesota are supposed to have a front plate, but a lot of people in my small town are running without them, so yeah I joined the no front plate club. Quote
krenzy Posted September 27, 2006 Report Posted September 27, 2006 According to a few cops, we need one....well, they MADE me put one on my '93 Camaro, but I have yet to get pulled over for driving my TGP with the plate in the window. So it's a toss up, unless you ask a cop...b.t.w., I'm in New Ulm, MN. Quote
Garrett Powered Posted September 27, 2006 Report Posted September 27, 2006 traffic cops get pissed when they dont have a front plate to hit with their radar guns. I got pulled over within the first week of having it like that. Quote
GP1138 Posted September 27, 2006 Report Posted September 27, 2006 I've had no front plate for like a year and a half and got casually warned for it once. Quote
Pontiac6KSTEAWD Posted September 27, 2006 Report Posted September 27, 2006 My plate is exactly like Kuntzies pics... I also have a spare TGP license plate bracket. Quote
GOT2B GM Posted September 27, 2006 Author Report Posted September 27, 2006 You can bolt up any 90-96 GP sedan plate holder to the front of the TGP, it fits exactly the same. Quote
