My guide ask me if i wanted the front plate bracket installed. The SC also called me when my truck arrived there and asked if I still wanted to have it installed. At least in ME, you are responsible to have your front license plate mounted. Regular dealers will have them already mounted in their vehicle inventories as they like to put the custom license bracket.

You should follow the law or vote to get it changed. In my area tons of illegal car mods are defacto legal because they gave up enforcing them.
I like your interpretation of legality 😂
I might put you on retainer

A CHP 0fficer once told me, on average an officer could write 27 tickets to a new car in California. He admitted it was from a study and most officers wouldn't know the more obscure infractions.

My guide asked me if I wanted my front plate installed. I said yes at first but changed my mind after seeing the truck at delivery. I live in California and have been pulled over for no plate on my Jeep. Taking my chances for now until I come up with my final solution.

I spoke to the San Francisco hub yesterday and they said they don't put them on unless people ask for them to be installed. They said they've had a number of people do the vinyl license plate and think it looks better.

I didn't know they weren't delivering the vehicles anymore. I'm pretty disappointed, I really hate driving into San Francisco from the North Bay. I guess they also have a service center in Sacramento and that would have been way easier but nobody asked me or even told me that they would not be delivering the truck. Miles wise it should only take a little over an hour, but with traffic it's regularly 2 hours and can be as much as three one way.

My rep offered to pay for a Lyft ride there but I'm going to try to get a ride from my mom even though she's in her seventies and doesn't like driving down there either. Otherwise I don't have a way to get down there and I want to be able to walk away if there's too many issues.

It happens more than you think at dealerships for sports cars.

I thought I shared elsewhere on this forum but there are a lot of offerings out there for no drill plates. They even have ones that automatically flip up with the touch of a button. I use this on my mustang and it had worked great for 7 years.

It's marketed for a mustang but it has an adhesive mount on the back of the bracket that should work with any car
Have one I used on one of my Mustangs, now just need to figure out where to mount it.

I ordered some after seeing this thread but have been hesitant to put them on. I have not been able to sort out if they could result in me getting arrested or fined for forging a government document.
most places you’d just get a ticket for not displaying an approved license plate correctly.

I think that's the RAM Version. You might want the Rivian Version below:

Thanks IronPig, but this was the only yellow background plate available in TX DVM that matches my Canyon Yellow R1S :cool:

Has anyone tried the Rivigear mount on Amazon yet. I like the Hookplate idea, but worry about it staying on. This seems to be very similar to the Builtright but with a different mount to the hook and is currently in stock.

If you are considering the ugly sticker, why not just use some VHB tape and mount the plate to your front?

I noticed that on this website, which claims to be the one and only legal source of these in California, they cost $120. But on several other websites, such as this one, they can be found for under $25. Does anyone know if there’s any noticeable difference between these? Or is the only difference being able to claim legality, which is a $95 premium?

For CA you there is only one company available and even that is a pilot program. The etsy one you referenced is for applying over a license plate for show vehicles.

Directly from that etsy site:
