I recently found and purchased this guy. It's staying in the trunk until I get pulled over for having no front license plate

It's in my trunk too along with the bracket.

The disadvantage for me with these tow-hook brackets is that they may not survive a car wash or bend and scratch the bumper. If my wife takes it to be washed and forgets...

It's mandatory in Canada. I did try once and got pulled over. Gave the cop a lame excuse and he let me go.

But I didnt try again...

In Alberta, this means you must have one visible plate on the back of your vehicle.

But since there exists no Canada outside of GTA, you might be right...
