wasn't there some law or something that you have to show your license @ the front and back? i'm not sure, i read that somewhere about this guy got pulled over just for no display of license plate.. =/
but if i were to choose, license plate looks not bad @ that position

this isn't alberta, you gotta have front and back plates.
OP is asking if his car looks better with or without the front plate...not asking about legal questions
your csx looks fine with the plate, i'd say put the plate on!
side note: i got pulled over twice last summer for no front plates...i have it on now

No plate.

on a side note
go to a body shop and get ur CF hood aligned its sitting too low, and lose the halo headlight's too ricy. use blackhoused oem + tsx projectors retrofit

Yeah, your bodywork looks like my Cavalier did stock... all over the place. The fitment isn't right...
Fix that... take the plate off and take some nice pics, find a good photographer on here... then put the plate on and leave it on... it's just not worth the $109 fine. Besides, if you have one thing illegal on the car to attract the cop's attention, how many more are they going to find?

You think, but sorry you are misinformed. All vehicles sold in BC have to have a provision for mounting a front licence plate, as they are required by law - ICBC will issue two licence plates one goes in the front, one in the back. And I don't mean in the window - mounted on the front of the car.
Corvette comes with a plate mount.. unless it's an Alberta car :) Now whether the owner chooses to put it on (the dealer usually leaves it off, as it's an expensive car, so the decision is left to the owner)... that's another story. But if you can afford to buy a Vette you can probably easily afford the ticket too.

+1 My car was sold with a side license plate mount. All cars in B.C. are required to have 2 plates.

You haveto run a front plate - regardless of what make your car is.

plate on is pretty nice in your car as it's overshadowed by the mouth of the car :P
but then again... i'm running plateless cuz of honda's awesome job making a shitty bracket that hits the car when there's wind pushing against it.

watchout for plateless man...
honestly, i dunno if it's my area... but I drive between north and south burnaby almost everyday, even into metro area where there's copys 24/7.
I speed like a dumbfuck sometimes too, and i've never been pulled over on the plate thing yet *knock on wood*
Maybe it's just my car isn't so heatscore since outer appearance is the exhaust (which is the puny spoon n1), sitting on spoon springs, gold RGII's with a mismatched blitz wheel.
But other than that... I guess I don't fetch attention as much as some would...
