I live in Southern California. I don't have a front plate on my Boxster. I have received a fix-it ticket for having the front plate off.
1. They won't pull you over for it.
2. They WILL cite you if they've already pulled you over for something else.
3. They WILL cite you at LAX for it--it's commonly-known that you don't want to head to the airport without a front plate.
Having said that, the fix-it ticket I got for the front plate was from the CHP in orange county. I never fixed it, and it isn't in their system anywhere. Something tells me that fix-it tickets from the CHP aren't tracked, but I can't say for sure.
