Ive only just realised, you not have to have a license plate on the front in some states in america? or you just take them off to block you license plate?
If so, wish it was like that in England

well see the thing is that my dad doesnt belive in with messing with the cars performance which is kind of true cuz when u start to put in uprades and mess with the stock stuff u start to get problems this is kind of the reason y my car doesnt have any performance stuff in it.

My dad is a Honda tech too, and I really really really had to pulls his leg in the beginning to let me mod my car back when I was 16. Eventually he caved in, afterall it was just an intake, header, and exhaust. Then we put a supercharger on it... then we turbocharged it... then we built an engine, transmission, and turbocharged all of that. Lol, gotta break em in slow! [8D]
He really loves working on my car now, he learns a ton everytime we pull something else apart or put something else together. It's actually at the point now that he wants to open his own tuner shop when he retires and do this stuff for fun.

on some models you can because it's vinyl, but sometimes the vehicle owners have professional pinstripers paint it onto the body and maybe clear coat it over it

ya tho most just use vinyl.... go to the front tip and look at the pinstriping if its got a finger nail catch.... just peel it off with your finger nail and just slowly pull it off...
most are vinyl its just easier for people to do!
BUT if you cannt catch your finger nail on the pinstriping then its paint BUT again rare.... only way to remove it then is to sand it out and buff the paint back to a shine. NOW THATS NOT SO EASY!!!! to sand off the pinstrip and not also sanding off the cars color or clear coat off as well! so if its painted.... i wouldnt mess with it....
