Front Plate mounting ideas
so i am considering actually putting thefront plate on the car. i wont be drilling any holes thats for sure. i am looking for some pics of the holder that can fold down and slide under the car or just the fixed holder that mounts to the bottom corner of the front bumper.

Front plate delete FTW!
If you havn't been hasseled I would just leave it off. They usually just give you a warning, at least they do for me.
If you REALLY want a front plate on your beautiful car... there was a topic here a couple months ago about this plate someone came up with. It went on the very bottom of his car, below the chin spoiler. At the flip of a switch it goes straight out and folds up. It was quite impressive. I believe he got a patent and a company bought the rights to it or something. Anyone have any more info on this?

That's me. Yes my design is indeed different than any out there as it's totally concealed and operates in only a 3/4 inch space.
Patent work is still being done. All the schematics are done and in the lawyers hands. It is costing me about $3000 though (plus the $450 I spent to build the prototype). It's just taking a lot of time to get it rolling.
