front plate dilema solved...

[everythintek]

hopefully a mod of mine more will enjoy...

so i have been stalling on my front plate mount for too long... and i read an interesting post where the guy drilled under the bumper lip instead of in the face.. i liked it but didnt know what i was going to do... so a little trip to autozone turned out well....

heres the pics...

and if i want to take off the plate for some reason all i have to do is rotate the bracket backwards and all you will see is the side posts...

cheap and easy took me 5 minutes... i strongly recommend this to those that dont want to add the front plate directly on the front.... but dont wanna fork out the dough for the hide a way ones..


oh and the bracket can be found here:

i really dont want to... but i also dont want to be pulled over for it, and they are crackin down here in wa.

its a compromise and i like how it turned out.

The bumper letters look nice. I did the same thing to mine. Good job on the tag. Glad we dont have to have them here in alabama.

there is another method that someone put up on here that comes off in like 10 seconds and requires no drilling~ it attaches under the edge of the bumper like that some how~

What holds it on? Double stick tape? :shrug: I would think that it would fall off!

I would go with one of Craigs brackets. (That's what I did :-D) [See Post 9] :read:

Awesome Kevin!!!

nice bracket, i guess what i meant was i solved it local and not for anything over 20 bucks with the black plate...

If I had custom plates then maybe I wouldnt mind so much. But until then no front plate for me.

I've been running without my front plate for 4 months now, driven past many, many cops, both state and local, and have only been bothered once. I'm still carrying the busted ass plate from when I ran the car into a ditch in the snow (Doh), so I showed the officer that, told him I'm still waiting on the new plate from DMV, and I was on my way. I figure that excuse will work until I get pulled over by the same officer twice......

Until then, no front plate for me. It will probably take me a few $50 tickets before I consider putting it on the car....

that was my thought too, but with my plates i like it. its really not as bad with my setup, i know that if i ever want to take it off no holes will be shown. i have too many fix it ticket things on my car that i thinks its a wise choice for me.
