I received my license plates today. Do. I need to drill holes in the bumper to install the front plate? Anybody else already did that?
Thanks

If you are in a state that requires a front license plate, the dealer would typically have already installed a front license plate bracket, and you would just screw the plate into the holes that are already in the bracket. In a state where front license plates are not required, I would guess that the dealer should have, at a minimum, asked if you wanted the front license plate bracket to be installed.

In any case, you should be contacting the dealer, and there should be no need for you to have to drill holes in the bumper.

I bought the car in Kentucky and have registered in Ohio. I have the bracket and 2 screws in the trunk. Dealer is too far away and need to install the bracket myself.

Since you're asking, I assuming Ohio requires front plates. Just take it to any dealer, and have them install it for you. If you're worried that they won't since you didn't buy it from them, take off dealer plate, dealer plate frame, and dealer windshield sticker, and they won't know that you didn't buy it from them.
