There are a few vehicles that actually look good with a front plate - my Acadia has a Mizzou plate on the front and I have a Navy wings plate on the front of my E30 (both shown in one pic - how do you like me now?!).

The e30 would look better if you tucked the bumper* :P




* I like the old school metal bumpers over the later plastic covered ones, but I do think the Euro look (less metal showing as they are recessed more) looks better.

I may do that in the future- I had not heard of that before, but I see they sell bracelets to pull the front bumper in 1 1/2” and the rear 1”. The rear has a crack in it the would be largely covered by tucking it.
