I put mine on yesterday and am pleased with the fit & look. I think I will run with the plate off most of the time and if i get stopped, I'll explain to the officer that I forgot to put it on after the show. :blush: The base itself, hangs about 5/8" below the splitter and is vulnerable to parking blocks and driveway inclines. Looking this over, I think it would be fairly simple to mill a delrin 6"x4"x5/8" block into a U shape to mount around the bracket (using the same holes) and providing rub bars on each side. I have a fellow club member with a CNC mill, who could fab these up. How many of you would be interested this?

I like to disassemble things.
I'm using this bracket and I know of one other member here that is using it as well.

I ran my '16 without the front plate, I even told the dealership not to put the bracket on. I'll pay the $43 ticket, but they never bothered me about it.

I have one for my car as well, although not a GT500, but it does have a pretty big front splitter on it. I like it.
I had a Craig's Custom on my last Roush Stage 3, but didn't really like it much. I only used it for when I bring my car to the yearly inspections and it is mandatory. After the inspection,....it goes bye bye. lol

I got one on my Bullitt as I didn’t want the bumper drilled. Really like it but it does seem low

I always wanted to install one of these black ones. Ones in hide position you can't really see in up front

It looks trick, but that far back in the grill it is seriously blocking air to the intercooler. The Sto N Sho is far
enough forward that it really doesn't affect air flow and acts as a bug deflector.:wink:

I have one on one of my focus RS's. I keep the plate in the trunk in case I ever get stopped on the way home from "the show".
Sorry sir, yes I can put it on right now!

Somewhere in NY..."That's ok son, stay in your vehicle. License and registration. I'm going to write you a ticket and I'll be back in a minute. You can reinstall your plate when you are safely at home. Any guns in the vehicle?"
