Front License plate bracket?

[Bikeman315]

Here's my sto-n-sho, as you can see, the bottom of the plate is just BARELY lower than the lip. At stock ride height, it's several inches off the ground. Zero chance of rubbing unless you drive into a curb directly.

That looked really good. Both this and the Craig's are excellent products. Folks just need to pick the one that best fits their needs. Or do what I did. Move to a state with no front plates.

Two questions and issues:

1. The plate will block the airflow as it is centered over the grill whereas the bumper mounted (drilled which I hate) does not do that
2. The strength of the grill to be the only support

The way I have my license plate mounted now it does block some air, but I do not have adaptive cruise on my car and I haven't noticed any marginally increased temperatures will driving the car with spirit.

As far as bolting it to the grill, I just had to be careful not to scratch anything. It's been on the car since I bought it back in 2019, and after a lot of spirited driving, the grill isn't at risk of breaking or anything. The license plate isn't that heavy to cause any issues with the way it's mounted.

I simply refuse to drill holes in the front bumper. If I have to drill holes I'd rather it be on the underside of the chin spoiler where you can't see it unless you lift the car up.

Honestly, I'd rather not have to drill holes at all, but my state requires front license plates...

So I'm not from a state that requires a front plate, but why couldn't you just go to one of those vinyl wrap shops and have them design something for the front that looks like the design of the plate, put your numbers on the design, and put the vinyl sticker center front of the car

Probably because is wouldn't be legal. Why go through all that bother and cost. Easier just to get a no drill mount.

There is already a site for that.

I ain’t going to lie, they don’t look as bad as I thought they would.

SOAB, I stand corrected. Figures it would be California!

I was 100% with you thinking it would be illegal... and I’m in Cali..

Tried to find the law and found that site instead.

Figured someone had it taken care of already!

The only time I used a front tag I just used a small piece of 3M molding tape behind the tag. Then just flossed it off when didn’t need it anymore. No holes, scratches, or special brackets.
