Couple questions:

1) Is the license plate frame made of plexiglass?

2) It looks like the frame is secured to the tow hook by a slotted screw. Does it provide enough clamping force to prevent the frame from rotating and being crooked? If not, perhaps a torx screw might.

a side view would be really nice to have because it appears that the plexiglass is very close to the bumper--almost touching. if we attach the license plate frame and plate on, wouldn't the screws (perhaps nuts and bolts) then rub against the bumper?

the product will come with screws/bolts that will not rub the bumper at all. The majority of you asked for a flush look and this is what I am providing. I will have the website up within a few hours with all of the pics you will need.

The plate is acrylic and there will be two washers in the final version with a flat head screw for secure clamping.

I have tested the first version and have had no problems on these Virginia streets, but just to put all customers minds to rest, the version shipped will have two washers.

with all the ppl on board for this, you gotta give a good groupbuy price. we'll be your first customers to try it out.

Prob a dumb question, but since this will be exposed to the elements, are the washers, bolts, etc stainless steel?

yes, they will be stainless steel. I really do appologize, but at this time, since this is first production/first sale, I wont be able to offer group buys at this time. I really do appologize for this, but I am already selling way beneath the competitions price. I believe it is more than 20 dollars cheaper after shipping is tacked on to their product.

Monday, no pictures
Friday, no pictures
Saturday, teaser picture
Sunday, no pictures
promises, promises
Better to say pictures forthcoming, rather than repeatedly promising dates that come and go...
Just a suggestion, start your business with honesty, integrity, and great customer service....

i would think that because the product is new and since you're new in the business, it would be prudent to have the groupbuy in order to have a large initial order from ppl who will serve as the guinea pigs for an untested product. but, whatever the case, it's up to you. when will it be ready? will it have a problem with rotating similar to the strictlyz model?

I've actually seen the final version and the product looks excellent. It actually turned out better than I expected.
