mount it on a servo so when the cops are chasing you, you can flip it up, lane split, and be gone in a hurry...

Pantablo's page has a how-to fender eliminator that looks really nice. You'll need to fabricate a bracket though. Shouldn't be too difficult.

You could mount two little "L" brackets anywhere in that fender region and hang it off them. It might be kinda cool to go as far foward as you could.
It might look kinda cool to put it like here:

You could still see it yet it would be out of the way

I have met people that have been cited installing the plate in front of the wheel.  It isn't lit up well enough and not visible enough.  Sounds to me like it would be asking for a hassle

Good advice cam guy, Ive seen lots of them up there, I guess there looken for trouble.
So could you put your plate up there with a light?

I made two "L" brackets out of bathroom hangers from Home Depot.

Mounting it in front of the rear tire under the seat is an obstruction of license plate ticket here in Texas.  One of the criteria they supposedly use is if they can't see it from an overpass, it's illegal.
