Would I be too paranoid to bolt my license plate with security torx screws so no methhead steals it? Apparently people have been having their license plates stolen(we also have our registration stickers on our license plate rather than in the windshield)

Rivet it instead. When you need a replacement just drill the rivets out.
>>
>>27604294
I use these, whats your issue exactly? They are screws
>>
>>27604294
You're not being paranoid if you have a good reason for it.
>>
>security torx
you mean somethign you can pick up for $8 at harbour frieight?
>>
>>27604331
Damn inflation.
Used to be 6 bucks.
>>
>>27604294
just weld it on bro

>>27604331
True, but if I'm a meth head out to steal plates a security Torx wouldn't be high on my tools-to-bring list. It doesn't have to be high security, just higher security than the Phillips or flathead next to you.

Pretty smart idea
>t. plates were stolen when my truck was left at my sisters place.
Yes, there was construction being done next door and we have mexicans here.

>>27604327
This

They actually sell locking license plate covers and they’re ugly as fuck when you see a car with the thing. Security torx or hex is a good idea.
>>
>>27604294
I typically use zap straps, the implication being that the plates are flagged and probably have a BOLO out for them already. Hasn't been a problem
>>
>>27604577
Nice racism of you to imply it was the Mexicans at work.

A Level 3 Thief would get the Hobo Freight kit. thats what sux
>>
>>27604661

>>
I just put antique tags on everything, I don't think there's appeal in stealing them

Who gives a fuck if some nigger steals your government mandated identification plate?
Not your problem nigga, just drive around without one until they useless DMV send out another.

Ma nigga

>>27604860
No you don't
Methheads are gonna have a stripped out Philips and a nickel to hand drive standards
'Professional' license plate thieves are gonna pound a screw extractor into it and bust it off with an impact in 10 seconds or use vicegrips if you try some meme electronics antitamper.
