LB: non-destructive Front License Plate mounting
Hey everybody, I've been planning on doing this since I got my car, but haven't had the time or a simple solution. Thanks to my friend Hulles I decided to do it today...
I went to home depot and bought a bunch of items I thought I might need (pic 1) in the end, I only needed 2 items: a 1/4" X 3.5" Bowl to Floor Toilet bolt set (that's right) $2.16 and a roll of non-adhesive plastic shelf and drawer liner $4.97 Then i cut the liner (only needed 1 cut, because the width was = to the size of the plate) and took the plastic washers out of the toilet bolt set and attached the plastic to the tags. (there is a ton of plastic liner left over) then I used the metal washers and brass nuts that came in the toilet bolt set to mount the plate through the lower grill. The hardest part was getting inside the grill from the bottom, had to loosen the plastic engine bay protector and slip my hand up in there. only takes a couple of minutes. perhaps I'm the only one that didn't want to punch holes in their bumper and no one else will find this useful, but i'm happy with the results. |
