Never had a problem in eight years in CT without a front plate.
The law/regulation states that it must be "displayed," not that it needs to be screwed into your front bumper. So, I keep my second plate in my glovebox, and when I park in a public place, I just put it on my dash to "display" it. Problem solved, although a super picky parking cop could still give me a ticket, I suppose. Still, it's never happened.
Legal language from the CT state Legislature:
" ... the law now requires only that any vehicle for which the DMV issues two plates must DISPLAY both of them."
