@omfgzilla has one

I sold mine off to @_Sp1ral0ut.
I upgraded to those battery powered magnetic plates. You can attach metal leaf's on it and they fall off when you press a button on a FOB.

@ShannonSRT I can give you some tips on what to do though
Step 1 – Drill a massive hole behind the license plate.
Step 2 – Feel around behind the bumper from underneath and discover there's a huge aluminum heat shield in the way.
Step 3 – Start popping trunk trim panels like it's a russian nest doll, until you finally realize the only way to reach the wiring harness is by removing the entire bumper.
Step 4 – Stare at the rear bumper for 4 minutes and say ........................ "f@$k it!"
Step 5 – Halfway through popping out your 15th bumper clip for the mod, realize you should've upgraded to aftermarket taillights or a diffuser light while you were doing this.
Step 6 – Put back the clips, screws, and bolts the way they were, and accept that you drilled a hole in the rear bumper for no reason.

@omfgzilla I had mine for two weeks and traded it for a flame tune, feet pics, and 14 apple Now and Laters to CafeQueen or whatever that Triumph CEO's name was.

Well crap I guess I will just continue to roll the window down and give them the bird at every camera. Sick of this Police State.

That is not a criminal offence?

Hellcat owners do not care care about the opinion of sheep. They are above the law.

thank you for contributing to the ever-increasing amount of laws and regulations against cars and car modifications, I'm sure it is a small price to pay so you can skip $5/week of tolls and/or get an adrenaline fix running from cops.

Can't have police being able to get that plate while doing street intersection takeovers.

They shut down a local car meet bc of it. Donuts around the gas pumps of all things...

Why is it always the Dodge guys doing this dumb shit??

This shit's dumb but the flock cameras around my neighborhood are getting out of control. I get it.

 

[_Sp1ral0ut]

I'm definitely in the "Fuck Flock" group.

I just think if they get your pic the plate isn't necessary to get. It's like getting caught cheating on your girl bc someone has a pic of you hitting side chick from the back, but the pic doesn't show your giant bat chest tattoo. I mean from the pic we know it's you...small wiener and all...

(not saying you have a small weenie @Vegas17 just using the word "you" in general.)

Why is it always the Dodge guys doing this dumb shit??

Because the Ford guys are too busy crashing their Mustang and the Chevy guys are too busy confirming their Olive Garden reservations.

Even with the flock cameras situation at the end of the day if you're not actively breaking laws then why break a law to avoid being seen not breaking laws?

If you're concerned about being tracked then make sure you never take a smart phone with you, and you tear out the entire infotainment and GPS system.

(Not to come off as "lol who cares if the government is watching you", just that if you're doing blackout plates because of flock cameras only because of privacy concerns and not because you want to be a hooligan, then it's like putting curtains on one of your two bedroom windows and thinking nobody can see into the other one.)
