Front plate.

Anyone with a good front plate solution? I took my front bracket out of the trunk during my test drive so they wouldn't "accidentally" put it on drill holes in my bumper.

I'd prefer something centered.

3m tape similar to the ez pass ones. I believe some of the forum members have done this method

I ended up using the Bell front license plate bracket, attached to the lower grill with three toggle bolts and some washers. I found it on some other forum and it worked great. Plate is centered and level, bracket is invisible, and it can flip down for car washes by loosening two hex screws. $8 and didn't have to drill any holes. Worked better than the Skene design bracket I used on my Range Rover.

click go advanced or post reply and then just use the paperclip icon to upload a photo; or post a link of uploaded photo to another site and then link it; end of the day not a huge deal, I'm just curious how it looks so I can decide whether to do it
