Front license plate mount

[DekCan]

I've recently upgraded my Stinger from a 2.0 to a 3.3 and my new GT doesn't have holes drilled into it like my 2.0 for the license plate. Has anyone been able to find a good license plate mount since I really don't want to drill holes into the bumper?

Some use the towing hook attachment to insert a license plate holder.

That's exactly what I'm looking for. Do you have a brand that doesn't block the parking sensors?

I haven't heard anyone say that's an issue. (There can't be very many options out there; maybe someone will see this thread who's bought one.)

I'm going to sound foolish but does having a front license plate reduce performance of the car? It's a relief to hear that it does not mess with the parking sensors... I have a Florida registered car so no need for front plates... when I was living in the DMV (Virginia and Maryland) I was very lucky and got away with just displaying the front plate on my windshield.

I love that retractable front plate!

Not foolish. I don’t know if anything is noticeable in terms of power but when I had a S2000 there was a difference in engine temps.

The holder I bought for the towhook does block one of the sensors - constant "beep" noise unless you turn it off or reach speed where it turns off.

Why mount a plate at all? In California there are so many cars without them, you would think it is legal not to mount it. I would rather risk the ticket than to mount a plate.

I’m in NY so we have to have them in front. Don’t want to get multiple tickets.

Dealership should have put the plate for you.

Dealership will drill right into your bumper. They do not care.

 

[DekCan]

Yeah I know. I want to keep my bumper intact.

 

[DekCan]

Thanks all. I got a plate that fits in the tow hook. After some placements it works great.

Looks good.

What holes did you use?

So the standard front plate holder is drill the bumper? That’s terrible design. In the market currently and having to look out of a state to find some specific features on the car. I’m going to have to now exclude dumb dealers who punch it in those states.
