Don't know about Texas, but I've not run a front plate here in Ohio for over four years. They tell me they'll pull me over and fine me $60 if I'm "cought", but nobody here seems to bother. (It probably helps that the surrounding states don't have front plate rules, so if they see me coming, they might think I'm from Indiana or Kentucky.) I suppose if I'm pulled over for speeding, they'll write me up for the lack of front plate, too.
Texas, however....I'd imagine they'd shoot you if you don't have a front plate. They shoot everybody in Texas...
