Default F Sport front plate help

Hey Guys,

I am picking up my new Ultra Whte GS F Sport by the end of the month and it sucks but NY law requires a front plate, however I've seen people put the plate in the lower portion of the grille and I am assuming using zip-ties. Can anyone help me with this or give me some ideas how they put their front plate on the car w/o the bracket, it really ruins the beauty of the car with that damn bracket.

Thanks,

Joe

You can stop by 180 Customs, and they can do it motorized on a remote so when you park you can flip it up... I don't really think you should be worried about getting pulled over for that, traffic agents are usually the ones who give tickets for those.

Thanks for the input guys, that is a nice idea. I've heard of it but is it also an option to have it on the lower grille?

OK I'm sold lol. I was just looking at your pic as a matter of fact in another thread, looks great! However its hard to tell where you placed it exactly, is it in the middle or off to the side?

Thanks!
