Default $2.50 plate bracket

Just wanted to see what everyone thinks. All I used was 2 1.5" 90 degree brackets, drilled a hole for each in the grill and bolted them down. The ones in the picture are only 1 inch, not the actual ones I used. I forgot to take a picture of the actual ones before I put the plate on. It works perfectly without touching any of the painted areas, very close though.

hope the plastic in the grille holds up to the stress of the plate as it encounters wind resistance at speeds you "might" hit!!!!

I had to drill at a 45 degree angle but it staightened out when I bolted on the brackets. It was kind of a pain. Also I am pretty sure it will hold up at least it did at 125.
