The edge of my plate is pretty sharp. Right now I've put a thin layer of gorilla tape around the edge of the plate so the edges don't dig into the paint. But I'd like a better looking, more permanent solution. Do they make like a rubber frame the plate can fit inside of?

What solutions are available to protect the paint from the plate?

Thanks

Mine sits fine. The four screws hold it nice and snug. :cheers:

Do the weathertech frames prevent the plate from touching the car?

Thanks

Walmart has a rubber frame that does what you are looking for.

I don't think so. But it holds the plate pretty snug.

I understand your concern about the plate scratching the paint. But you'll only see where it's scratched when you remove the frame and plate. And b/c the bumper is not metal, even if the paint is scratched all the way thru, there want be any rust issues.

Here's another pic with my new black plate that I got after I put the stripes on. :cheers:
