    We bought a 2017 Subaru Outback.

    I was looking at it the other day and realized that we still haven't put on the front license plate. These are required by law in our state and I am keeping my fingers crossed that we will not get ticketed for not having one. Given that the cost of one ticket is probably the same price as getting a bull bar or rally light mount. What are your thoughts?
    Pictures below give you an idea of the poll options.

    ^That's in Aussie dollars, so "only" $1800-2300 in real currency. :p

    Make you wonder how expensive front-end repairs are over there...
