In a state that doesn't require front plates - they unnecessarily put holes in the front bumper to put on a dealer plate, and frame. - I think that is what the previous posters mean by damaging the front unnecessarily.

Off the top of my head...
 
Florida and Mass that I deal with on a regular basis.
 
Whenever I do a FL reg I only get one plate.

Arizona
 
now I have to mar the bumper on my Imp because I moved to a 2 plate state
 
IMO I think 2 plates are dumb... I know I'll get flamed but I do.

Nope - Mass went back to 2 plates about 8 years ago. The old green single plates should be turned in.

No, I feel the same. The rear of most vehicles is invariably designed to incorporate a standard sized plate, complete with illumination. In other words it looks right.
 
The front end however, especially on todays rounded 'aero' designs, is rarely shaped to accomodate one. Even when a moulded plate holder is available, it almost always looks like an afterthought (to me anyway).

Pennsylvania.
 
However, in my opinion all states should have both front and rear plates, given all the car related crimes that are committed.
