license plate mount
havent really looked at any, but does anyone have a license plate holder for the front that doesn't require drilling into the bumper? I need to put one on cause the guard at the gate always asks where it is. I dont have one at this moment, but it is on the way. Any quick links to a site or an ideas on how i could mount it?

There is one listed on ebay. Go to car parts and search for it. I kow it is there cause I just seen it earlier I just do not know the item number. I have seen this same company list another one as soon as the one listed sells. I seen them sell for around $30.oo plus shipping.

I got mine off ebay. i searched for a drilless license plate holder. The guy did a great job with it and shipped it really fast. If you buy it I recomend getting rubber feet for the back so when it moves it doesn't scratch your front end.

RE: license plate mount
I added the plate bracket that was made for the California Special. You'll have to drill two holes, but it looks alot better than it did before with the plate just hanging off the front. Here are the parts you need:
bracket (part #7r3z17a385ca)
bolt kit (part #5r3z17a385aa)
There were pics on another forum, but I'm having trouble finding them...

Unless this guy can officially give you a ticket, tell him to mind his own business. If it's some guy letting people into a gated community he can't do anything about it, plus even if he could I would rather take the ticket than put plateon my front bumper[:'(].

RE: license plate mount
its at an AF base gate. It is also mandatory in TX. If they tell me to and I don't it will go up to the commander and I can lose my driving priviliges on base. Not to mention after that it can become failure to disobey a direct order... yada yada yada... I like my stripes... just easier to put it on and deal with it... minus the two holes in the front if i can!
