Default Anybody using this one???

I've been doing some surfing since I last wrote. I found a website called ccmustangbrackets.com which has a bracket assembly which bolts to the under portion of the front bumper. I'd like to know if anyone has one , and if so, how does it work,...Is it secure,...does it mount firmly. I sure don't want to lose a plate, etc.
I'd be glad to buy if it works well...

Hm.. Rubbing Alcohol- 3M double sided tape? Once it bonds it shouldn't move until you rip it off and then you could clean off the glue? I know its holding my somewhat weighty "CDC Decklid blackout" on snug.

I too have this dilemma living in NYC. I want to get the Cervinis front bumper kit but do not for the love of God do not want to drill into it and put my front license plate there. Of course the cops around here are a-holes and don't want to risk driving around with no front license plate like pxdig and mynameismike suggests.

I live in MD, and also must put tags on the front. I also have to rip the beautiful tint off. I am not a happy camper.

There has to be some more people on here that have either tried the bracket or another mounting method.

I invented the perfect solution. Patent is underway and this will be a universal kit available to the public as soon as possible

(Don't PM me and ask how it works....I can't tell anyone how)

It hurt to get my bumper drilled but i no longer feel uneasy driving by police and such. It

was worth it.

I am so glad to live in a state where this is not required. IMO, it makes most cars, and some trucks, look terrible.

the swift motorsports one looks goofy because you can see it hanging under the car. it needs to go back in farther.

I just moved to a state that requires a front plate. The wife got a warning for it yesterday, oh well, the plate is staying off.
