the car should have a metal bracket on the front to hold it. just stick the plate in your windshield.

You cant put the front plate in the windshield, it needs to be "permanently" mounted to the front of the car (at least that is how the law is in California). If you really dont want it, double sticky the plate or wire it on, have the ticket signed off and take the plate off again.

My car came from New Mexico and didn't have a lisence plate holder. I just driled the liscense plate in so I wouldn't get any tickets. I also angled it to look nicer.

If you don't have a front bracket or hate that look, I've seen ppl take the front licence plate bracket off. They then fold the top portion and bottom section to the back so only your numbers are showing. They bolt this folded licence plate inside the grill. Looks very cool. Don't know if it's legal though when you mutilate the licence plate like this, but you sure won't get a ticket for not having one.
