My front plate is mounted in a cupboard somewhere in my garage. Technically in Cali you do need it, but a not insignificant minority of people drive without it and so far I haven't had any trouble. I was pulled over for speeding the other day (ironically the day I took my wife's 4-banger Q7 rather than the M3). I suspect if I'd been driving the M3 with no front plate they just would have tacked that onto the bill.
