Tres quick hackjobs...
Just to get an idea...
I didn't even round the plate...straight cut/paste

While I'd prefer it not to be there...it doesn't look WAY outta place..and better that than a bracket

here in Germany, they are required, too. Fortunately, ours are wider but not as high as American/Canadian plates. What are the dimensions of these plates above?

My eyes!! Dear God, my eyes!!!!

I'll reiterate...I'm keeping my front one off as long as possible!!!

I believe most North American plates are 12" x 6".

Sadly, yes. Texas requires 2 plates.

I was wondering about putting it in the window, even though I heard that it was a law that you had to have it under a certain amount of inches off the ground.

Not Arizona either. In fact,you only get issued 1 plate here,unless you order personalized,then they send you 2.

Koolaid. Try doing some research on your own and not creating a thread for every little question. Please.

Second item down is a petition to eliminate the front plate, therefore, yes, you need two.
