Default Front plates on NismoV2/Amuse bumper without drilling

Hey guys, planning on getting either a v2 nismo or amuse front bumper but front plates are required here in CA. Can anyone tell me how you guys mounted your front plates without the need to drill holes!!? I really want to avoid drilling.

My nismo v2 came with pre-drilled holes for the tow hook and license plate.

So how about the amuse guys, how'd you guys mount front plates? Someone mentioned the stillen, is it a universal fit or something specific for an amuse/nismo.

Thanks for the feedbacks

haha calin, idk if it was the fact that you shot it with your cell or that my work computer sucks but when I watched the video your plate quite literally disappeared. I watched it again and actually saw the folding action...

This thing is pretty neat

go to home dept buy a nut and make your own bracket. Not that hard. Or just ziptie the plate inside of the bumper. That's what i did. Only the numbers will show.
