L/P plates - how do you wear them?

I just read that apparently it's illegal to have any part of your plate covered by tint and/or wipers.
My current setup has the rear plate (bottom right of window) is covered by the rear wiper. The front plate (top passenger side) cannot be seen from the outside due to the dark blue tinting.
I'm hesitant to get external plates and wear them next to the license plate (does it look faggy?) because they may get stolen. Cannot think of any other way of displaying them without being pulled over constantly and being dealt fines. The back plate isn't really an issue since i can just move it to the left side but the front plate can't really be moved anywhere else without hindering my sight

If I were you I would look into external plates for the front. It doesn't look 'faggy,' but even so, i'd rather look faggy than be dealt fines for 4 years.

Kinda off topic but anyone know a decently priced + reputable driving school?

I'll probably go with RACV, but am open to other suggestions...

As for the plates, maybe get the tint removed in that small section so the plates can go on the windows?

Surely someone you know knows someone who knows someone who knows a driving instructor?

I've had a google sesh and founds some.  :P

Need to find money first though haha.

What if you get brackets for the plates that can be screwed into the same holes as the number plates?
