Awesome. Bullet dodged. The photo was taken right after I picked up the Caddy. I put a plate on it shortly after, as I was pulled over for not having one. I don't really mind having a plate on the front. The only time I don't like it is when a car has a relatively small air opening, and the plate blocks it.

Exactly, bullet dodged. Until the next time they get me. I doubt the inspection will be as cursory the 2nd time. The guy didn't even touch it or look closely lol.

Yeah, unfortunately the dealer put holes in my bumper for the plate. Think I'm going to remove it and fill the holes with some plugs from Home Depot. Not too pretty but definitely cheap.

My brother in law did the same thing and bought some touch up paint to hide the plugs. I'm lucky enough to only have tiny pin holes where the holes are tapped.
