Be happy that he is giving her a warning and not a citation.

One option other than mounting the plate to the bumper is a holder that uses the front tow hook.

Other suggestions here.

Given that she has been warned, I would recommend getting this violation corrected as soon as possible as usually there is little tolerance by DPS troopers for those who ignore warning about equipment offenses.

There is currently a thread on this subject in the Texas forum on city-data.com. That thread started the same day (3-5-13) as the last two posts on this thread. I found it an interesting read. One person chimed in from New York, informing readers that a no front plate ticket costs $65.00 there. Another person posted from Texas who had been fined $150.00 for no front plate while driving on I-10 in Texas. Perhaps most interesting were the comments from a police officer in Texas. He came across, IMO, as very level headed, very reasonable.
