I had my dealer fix it. If you persist enough, they will probably do the same for you.

From what I read, yes. And quite notoriously... have heard MANY Texas members complain about front plate violations.

Default Z 'plate'?

What's a ZEE plate? I'm tryin to find an alternative to mount my plate. I requested the front plate bracket not to be installed.

Anything out there? Or should i just use zip ties, and mount the plate to the grill?

Thanks

The patented Zee Bracket was created by our very own AudioPat.

Sold by dealers nationwide

Thanks for the feedback. Ohio has the two plate law and was just reinforced this year. "F" the front plate. Sport cars should not be required to have it. See ya on the road Jovasi...

Default no drilling option!

I have a kit on my roadster that screws a bolt into the tow hook and then puts a plate on the end of the bolt. That is where you put your front plate. Nice and clean, no drilling. Here is a link to the thread with a picture

No, it's just that yet another feature on this site has broken. They should be working whenever the high schools have their next big break.
