Hideaway License Plate

I wanted to get one b/c I live in Mn and we by law have to have two plates. I figure on leaving the plate in the back but I want to put one in the front. If you have one can you post a vid up so I can see how it looks with a lowered ride. Also any feedback as to pros and cons. Since I am planning to go to Wekfest in Chicago on the 20th I didnt want to put a plate on my new spec-I bumper I'm getting from Strafe.

THanks!

Cons, a speed bump would rip that ess right off.
Pro's, I'm not really sure...
If your just trying to mount a plate without modifying your bumper, you could maybe run a mounting bracked thru one of the side vents. You'd have to cut a small area in the screen, but that might be your best bet as far as not drilling holes in your bumper. The plate would be off center, but I'm sure it's within the legal guidlines at that point.

IDk depending on your choice of front bumpers it could work really well. Anything like kuruma z or k2 with a large opening in the middle would be ideal..

this guy in the video has an intercooler but if you dont or you can put it off to the side then just do it through those holes. i saw this same kit installed a couple weeks ago the parts looked quality.

Thnks for the responses. Im getting the Spec - I front bumper so I think my only option is to put it under the front bumper. Just tryin not to mount it to the front of the car since it takes away from the look so much.

Yeah it is pricey. But I like the keyfob for easy manipulation of the plate.

Thanks man. Once I get my parts in from Strafe mine will look as sick as the one in the pic except the rear and trunk will be diff. Gettin CS rear bumper and Strafe CF V2 trunk. Just changed out the wheels in my pic from the OEM Rays to some custom painted wheels (bronze lip and OB face) and installed my projector HID's today. Wait till it is done will def post in the best looking OB thread
