Front retractable number plate.

Saw this while browsing youtube.

Not sure pc plod will like you or this, but would look good on a show car.





I wonder if they could make this for the rear number plate? lol

That's fantastic especially when you drive through some countries in Europe fex France, Germany, Poland - they all take pictures from the front to show the driver

Interesting, but American market only I reckon: in most US States front number plates aren't mandatory. This would allow you to retract in a state that doesn't require, then display when in one that does.

I suspect that using that in the UK would get you a definite charge under construction and usage regs.

And if you were snapped speeding a possible charge of perverting the course of justice.

It is obviously illegal in other countries too. I saw something like number plate cover on Youtube. The clue was the big box which holded the number plate together with curtain cover which made this suspicious from the first look, easy target for police. This is entirely different. It's not something I would buy or use thinking about consequences but interesting to see
