My understanding is that they make it such that at a certain angle, it is black and if you look dead on, it is clear.

Just take the plate out. If anyone says anything, act like the proverbial dumb blond. I used to have a plate on my firebird that had the wife and my name on it. Pulled over onetime and acted dumb. Clained the salesman at the autoshow told me it was ok. Cop showed me the statute and gave me a "fixit" ticket. Fixed it for the cop, went to the pigpen and showed them the thing, got it signed off and life was good. After that, the custom plate came back on. One time in the last 15 years is fine. Been told to fix it other times (twice, maybe) and left it that way. None of my vehicles have a front plate except the truck which has a hole in the bumper so I cover that with a licence plate that has a pic of the flag on it.
