Tow hook License Plate Holder (w/ photos)
#16
I don't mind the plate being offset to the side. I just hope I never have to use one of these things. I've gone without a front plate for years on BMW... but I hear some cities are more stringent on front plates than others in California.

In OH you need front plate as well. I didn't like the offset look and no way was I going to drill into the front of the bumper. I bought the Skene mount that has worked out beautifully. You only drill 2 small holes underneath, they will never be seen.

In New York its a requirement to have a front license plate.
Trying to avoid making holes on the front bumper i searched online and found an excellent solution that uses the tow hook hole in order to mount a license plate holder. I bought it from moweraxle.com
I won't say much. Service and shipping was excellent and the part itself well thought and designed.

You'd think someone would make a bracket which attaches in the center, but doesn't require drilling holes visibly in the front bumper. Mazda RX-7s had brackets which attached underneath the overhang. Does Porsche need to contact Japan to figure this out??

I was going to make one exactly how you described it. Furtunately, with 1/8 trimming of the plate coupled with the 3rd radiator install, I was able to install my plate in the center of the bumper AND with the 2 very small holes way underneath the bumper. No need for a bracket. Though my plate is actually installed in the pic below, do you see my license plate now.....
