Depends on the state, I suppose. My state (Colo.) requires a front plate, but I had a Chevy S10 pickup that had a ground effects kit on it and no front plate bracket at all. I drove that PU for about 7 or 8 yrs without a front plate and never had a problem.
On the other hand, if a cop is looking for an excuse to bust you, not having a required plate is an easy one.
Just remember, Texas executes more criminals than any other state in the union.
