If you must put one on.. just put it inside underneath the windshield on the passenger's side.. well unless you want to drill into your V2 bumper

Found an interesting solution...

I just wonder how long you need for the V2 since they're showing OEM specs.

Not cheap too.

oh **** i just deleted these pics...
but it is simple, all you need are two long screws, about 6 inch, to hold the OEM bracket. (bracket needs to be cut in order to fit)
first, you need to drill two holes on the factory bracket, measure the position to match the holes on V2 bumper.
then put the screws through these holes, screws goes into the holes on V2, install plate, and you're done.
hope you understand!
