Default 2013+ LS front licence plate mount

Hi guys,

Recently bought a craven speed platypus tow hook licence plate mount.

Thing is it triggers my front left parking sensor....

Anyone can recommend a good tow hook licence plate mount?

Or anything that i can do without drilling holes?

Spoke with craved, they are providing some type of bracket, not sure if it will help but thier support is pretty good.

Any help is appreciated !

I have a Sly Bracket and really like it. Very easy to install and high quality metal materials. https://www.slybrackets.com/store/#!...617/category=0

Personally I think those side tow hook mounts look terrible, I would just drill and mount the plate in the front if you have to run one, it looks much better.

And that center section is easily replaceable if you ever wanted to go back to the no plate front, that grey spindle piece is all one piece and isn't part of the bumper cover.
