Default Front license plate

This might be a dumb question, but what are you Fox Saleen guys using for front license plate mounts? I absolutely hate to do it, but it looks like I am going to have to drill through the filler panel under the grill. Anyone have a creative way to not have to do that?

Thanks,

I imagine just line up the license plate bracket where you want it and mark it and then drill the holes. I know what you mean on my 88 GT I got a ticket for not having one on and I had to do it. On my 02 Saleen it came with no holes for a bracket and hopefully I wont have to wory about it. HOw do the nower Corvettes get away with it.

Thanks.

Looked at it some more and I'll probably just pull off the filler panel and drill into the bumper cover only. Put the filler on the shelf. Stupid front plates... :roll:

Later,

Default front plate

i used auto body 3m double stick tape to the back of the plate and the mounted it on top of the bumper filler.

drove down to the court and had them check off the plate. removed before i even got home. :)
