I rock one (and at times I rock no plate) and I'm in Cali. Just make sure when you park downtown, you put on the Cali plate somewhere.

Fix it tickets used to be only $14 when you "get it fixed". They have recently raised the price/fee to $40 (IIRC).

I could be wrong but it's a lot more than $14 now.

^ It's sorta like a gamble. Although generally they won't pull you over just for the Euro plate. Usually the "no plate" adds on when you get another ticket from bigger ones such as speeding, traffic light tickets, etc.

Also they tend to give out tickets when you're parked downtown, or in my case in SoCal the LAX airport. I'd usually put my Cali plate on the windshield as I carry my CA plate with me all the time. It's not a guarantee no ticket but it's better than no plate at all.
