you going to make me draw a diagram for you? :) lets say there is an exit on the highway and there is an onramp onto the highway a little ways before you get to the exit! as someone exits the highway anyone that is taking the onramp onto the highway will be behind the exiting car at least thats how it is in texas I dont know how you guys do it in florida :)

Thanks. I think I know what happened now. I've seen those dangerous combined ON/OFF designs. I was visualizing a ON ramp on one side of an Interstate and the OFF ramp on the opposite side of the Interstate. A picture is worth a thousand words as the adage states. No picture needed here as I remember those dangerous combined ramps you described where cars are crisscrossing each other and accelerating and decelerating simultaneously at 70 mph or in your case at 100 mph.

Just ordered the front plate bracket from GOMINIGO!

That's classic! That's my black Ford GT in their product photos, and my former Mini Cooper Dinan S2 also. I took the product photography for their web home page, a decade ago! Nice to know they still have my photo credits, a decade later.

I had forgotten the name of the supplier, until you mentioned it.

Here is their link:

Took the front license plate bracket that screws in the tow hook connector on my '06 and put in tow hook connector my NFGT. Fits great. I'll post pics this weekend. I believe I got it from the above mentioned "lawnmower company".20190531_190845.jpg20190531_190853.jpg20190531_190859.jpg20190531_190906.jpg20190531_190923.jpg

I pulled up in the GT at a gas station and as I’m filling up I notice a couple of cops with a perp cuffed on the hood of their cruiser. One of them looked at me and said: wanna swap cars? I said ok, and I’ll take care of the perp, but if I catch you breaking even one law, you’ll end up just like your friend there... They started laughing and the look on the perp’s face was like WTF is going on!
I probably wouldn’t cut it as a cop, I’d only be writing tickets for traveling in the left lane, impeding the flow of traffic, and failure to use common sense!

Your profile on the left doesn't indicate where you live, so where is around here?

I have to say that is ugly.

Didn't say I was going to leave it on, only that the tow hook connector for '06 GT and NFGT uses the same threads and if you had to it could be an answer for front plate placement.

Did see this front plate attachment at a recent car show on a older Acura NSX. It appears to fold up and down as needed.

One of our group of GTs at this past weekend's GT Mini-Rally in NorCal was pulled over by the CHP for expired tags. Not one of us had front license plates & neither did the GT that was pulled over - no ticket for it.
