Hopefully you won't find it frustrating to learn this, but we're living in the Akron area and, having bought my '01 about 14 years ago, I've NEVER had front tags.
Got stopped once (Medina area) where that was the stated reason for the stop. No ticket issued. Have been stopped a few other times since then (radar/laser-related, sometimes ticketed, typically not) when they, as a tack-on, mentioned the lack of front tags. NEVER cited for it. (The Medina stop got me a warning.)
I've been around for a while, have had grey hair for over 20 years...I'm sure that's helped. But, bottom line, I don't think it's been a big issue in Ohio. Not since we've been here anyway (1997). I just couldn't bring myself to drill holes in the bumper cover of this gorgeous machine. Couldn't do it...especially once I realized it apparently wasn't a big deal among Ohio law enforcement personnel. :dance:
