Welcome,
Been driving without a front plate in central jersey for 6 years with no problem.
That thing makes it easier for the Lazer guns to tag you. I'd rather pay the $45 no front plate ticket when it comes up rather than making it easier to get the nice hefty surcharge we get here in NJ for going as little as 10 miles over the limit.

Are you a detailing man? Black car, lots of work but worth it at the end of the day.
Try FK #425 leaves your paint so slickkk. Wish I had it when I was black car owner.

Thanks guys,the thing with the liscense plate is the two holes left in the bumper without it that look bad.If the holes where not there,it would look real good.

Do you think FK is better then Klasse?I know Klasse is not sold in stores,is fk?

Klasse has the best polish on the market (ALL IN ONE)

After that you would need a good seaslant.
there are many good ones now. KLasses has some competition.
Acrylic Jett and Poorboys EX with Carnauba are very popular for black.
Right now I'm using FK's FX 1000 (very little elbow grease required just give it a couple of hour to cure before you add a topper or 426).

425 is not a polish its a final gloss that acts as a dust repellent because it leaves a very very slippery finish to your paint. Its a must have you use a Carnauba glaze like S100. Those Carnauba toppers tend to attract allot of dust.
FK also makes a dust repelling wax topper called pink wax.
