Default RX 350 2017 (no F-Sport) no-drill front license plate options?

Hi folks,

So I got my 2017 RX350 (no F-Sport) and she didn't have the front license plate brackets mounted.
Wondering if there is any no-drill option for mounting a front license plate?
As far as I know, this model does not have front tow hook (no tow hook at all?)

Any experience would be appreciated, or maybe the only thing I can do is going back to the dealership and have them install the brackets for me?

Brackets for me are installed by dealer at first service.

There's really nothing to worry about when mounting the bracket since the holes will be hidden by the grille. If you're planning to install the front plate, you might as well use the provided bracket.

I am also looking for a way to mount the license plate elsewhere. On my IS I have it mounted off to the side by the way of the tow hook mount. At the moment i am running plate less up front. I can always reinstall the oem mount but was looking for a way to keep the Giant grill clean without having the tiny plate at the bottom of the grill.
