As a stupid requirement here in Dubai all cars must have front licence plate, so I'm sure my car will come with a front bracket from the factory, will I be able to remove it? Will there be any visible holes or it just clips to the front bumper?

The factory includes the bracket, but the dealer has to drill the holes to install it. You maybe able to get them not to drill the holes. Also check out "sho-and-go" and "Craig's no drill bracket". These allow for front plates without the holes in the bumper.

Great!!

Just called the dealership and told em not to Install the bracket, in dubai we can get a small number plate for cars with no bracket which is actually a sticker that sticks to your bumper

It's a travesty to have to put a front plate on this car. I'm not running one at least until I'm tired of front plate tickets. Then, I'll get the Craig's no drill bracket.

Had to put my plate on I've been warned, pulled over, and towed and can't afford a stupid violation so plate on and my lowrider cost me almost 400.00 dollars Canadian with towing and the ticket and the compound charges and taxi.

I installed my Craig's no drill bracket last night. I was a little concerned that it would be secure enough, but as they say in the instructions, if you install it properly "when it's stuck, it is stuck".
This will work out very nice, I'll post some pictures when I get time to take some.

Don't you have to drill holes on the splitter with the Sto N Sho?

That is GROTESQUE. I've been stopped three times in 40 years. The last time he initially stopped me for tinted windows and then took a little tour around the car and wrote me up for no front plate as well. That's why I'll never tint my windows again. It's too eye-catching. My nephew is a deputy sheriff. If I get stopped over the front plate I'll have him write off the fixit ticket and take my chances.
