What year are you? If 96 I've seen a couple people tuck it right behind the bottom grill...

I just keep mine inside on the front windshield.
There is a little gap where the defroster vents are that make an excellent stand for the plate

I haven't had a front license plate for over 2 yrs now.

If you got a ticket and don't want to put holes in your bumper, just pay the ticket.

Yeah, I dont wanna put holes in my nice bumper either but the police at my uni's primary job is to generate revenue. They are really crazy about minor things like that, which is why I leave it displayed on the front.

Just come up with a bracket.

Some aluminum, mount it on the underside of the bumper, bent a lip out so the plate can mount into it. Of course make sure it has some holes in it for the mounting.

I do not have this on my car, i have just seen it done numerous times, and it would not take longer to do than 20 mins.

Two possibilities: *sorry about bad quality*


Red = aluminum
Green = bolts/screws
Blue = license plate

As you can see in 1. there is the option of mounting it so the plate 'hangs off' the brakcet. Of course it is mounted above the 'bumper grills'
In 2. it is the opposite, where you would mount the bracket from the bottom of the bumper and have the plate 'standing' off the bracket.

Hope you can see what i mean...
