I've only been warned once in my 7 yrs of driving here in MN for not having a front LP. I take them off first chance I get. Right now I have the front LP in my garage and it'* painted to match the car -from new from what I can tell -doesn't actually look too bad on the car as it is body color -the LP is a different story.

I been thinking about the same thing. Move it down in front of the lower air intakes, instead of in the middle of the freakin' bumper. Why didn't GM do that in the first place?

I was thinking of placing it in my glove box with some 3m quick release adhesive so if I see flashing lights I can speed off the road park put it on the front quickly then get back in and ask the officer if there is a problem.
