    Mounting license plate on JDM bumper??

    I'm hopefully gonna be throwing on my JDM front bumper in the next week or so and I cant figure out a good solid way to mount my front plate without having to drill new holes in either A. my bumper or B. my plate.

    Suggestions??/Pictures of how you mounted yours?

    You're probably gonna have to put new holes in the plate. I didn't want to either so I just dealt with the harassment from cops and didn't run a front plate

    Seriously, if I were to pick the easiest and less evil, id say."screw you ugly plate" and drill new holes in it...BUT, you could make adapters that you first screw into the slide on clips on the bumper, then it has threaded holes that space it out for the us plate...

    If you want a bracket like that I could make you one

    Another option is lots of 3M tape? Haha

    lol 3m tape sounds good till you hit about 45mph. Then you'll most likely be stopping to pick up the plate of the ground.

    bahahah it would be funny to watch him do it. Then follow him just to see it fly off and have him stop to go and pick it back up.

    I've got it.

    Two L brackets. Screw them into the mounting point in the plate, then on the opposite end you screw them in above the lower grill, on the underside. Kinda hard to explain but in sure your get it. This way no one will ever see the holes anyway. Kind of like a license plate relocater.



    Do I win????
