As I was told by a police officer, "You are issued two license plates and you are required to use both of them." I have a Greddy fmic and have not run a front plate for quite some time (know on wood). I think that it is a $35 fine if you are pulled over and given a ticket. I was also told that it isn't good enough to have your plate in any other location than where it was meant to be placed.

Yes.. the law requires that you have a front plate in Colorado (hence why you rarely see a vehicle without one).
I think it was JaMa that got ticketed because his was on the dashboard behind the windshield, and not in the proper location. You take your chances, you pay your fines. Personally I don't think it's worth getting stopped over and then have them scrutinize my ride and additionally ticket me for suspension, tint, emissions, etc. etc. -Pace |

My car wears its front plate, though for a couple of weeks I had no front plate and had no problems. If I were you, I would use the front plate, but hey! I'm just a single man trying to make his way in the world, take it for what its worth.

My friend got a parking ticket down on Colfax and Ogden, and the cop tacked an additional $20 on for no front plate . On the other hand, I haven't had mine on for months and I've never had a problem.

I did it
My WRX wears both plates. However, I used to have an SE-R that I drove for about 4 years without a front plate. In all that time I got pulled over once for it (and got away with only a friendly reminder to put it back on).

I got a ticket downtown when I was at school for not having a front license plate.

I have seen people bend the plate into the opening below. Less obtrusive and questionably legal.
