Wonder if a cop will stop me for this?
I stick lots of crap on my LR, mostly souvenirs from trips. Sometimes they are decals or stickers but I picked up this mock license plate in Istanbul last month and mounted it just under my state tag. I also have a plate from Australia on the bumper.
From what I could find in the Texas motor vehicle code you must have both front and back plates and no part of any plate can be covered by anything like a frame, lens or filter that effects reading the plate number, state, etc.
My wife says I will probably get hassled over this but I'm of the opinion this isn't any different from plates with college names or logos on it.

They are clearly not license plates, BUT...you might want to move Istanbul down there by Australia. Ynk, IMHO some bored cop might pull you, and with the tags touching like that it would make for a great pretense to stop you and check your dl, ins., etc., along with the obligatory "look around" while he/she is there.

not to mention, cops are people and different people, at that. I once had to wait on a k9 unit to arrive and sniff out my truck (scout II/ nice looking, not a beater) , because I had a bulk pack of box blades on the dash (for work) I was pulled over because "I looked suspicious" frisco texas
very thankful that they are all not like that.
