Front License Plate Alternative?
Hey CL,
Ive had my 2012 IS 250 for almost half a yr now and after having a shoot with a few CL members, I really hate having my front plate on....Are there any alternatives besides using a Tow hook mount? I know I can cover up the holes with caps from my local home depot. I live in the Bay Area, CA so its a hit or miss with cops actually pulling you over for no front plate

I used that exact same non-motorized version after my fix it ticket, which, as Mariano mentioned, happened while my car was parked outside on the street. I affixed it underneath my bumper, which reduced my ground clearance but protected the underside of the bumper a great deal. It really worked, but I just got bored with the look. I might try the motorized approach, but I know there will be some cutting of the lower grille.

here's my setup -
heres the better view -
ISF front style bumper. i had to trim it a bit. cut it around all sides. not sure how to do it with regular bumper. originally i thought about just using like velcro perhaps. on the beamers they have this motorized unit that can bring up the plate and then hide it.
