NEW - Coming (2 Weeks) Front License Plate No Screwing Front Bumper!

I would like to get a count (this isnt signing up) of who is interested in purchasing a front license plate frame that uses your tow hook similar to the stillen design but for much less.

I started a fabrication business long ago but was completely blineded about designing and manufacturing one of these. I will have first production pieces in under 2 weeks.

With the kit comes the 1) threaded rod, 2) license plate backing, 3) black frame (changeable at your will), and a 4) single screw binding the backing plate to the rod. (It threads right through)

By popping off your tow hook bumper entry point and installing this takes all of 2 minutes with just a screw driver.

Material of the rod is brass for 2 reasons. One is its strength properties over cheap aluminum. Secondly, it machines well.
*Though aluminum machines much more easily, depending on grade, it can also warp easily due to machining.
This said, the rod will thread perfectly every time.

All pieces will be quality inspected before shipment. If any unit arrives damaged, or does not fit (which I guarantee will not happen) I will take full responsibility and either replace or refund your money (your choice)(30 day)

Units are going for $42.50 including shipping/handling to all of the continental US. If you choose to pay via paypal, please ad an extra $1.50 since they are convenient theives

I am doing this professionally (of course), so leave any worrying to me.

So please, all those who are interested, state so here so I can just get a general headcount. Again, this isnt signing your name up for one, so Im not holding you to it just need appx numbers.


Thanks!

P.S this is a G35driver.com exclusive to start off with. I owe a lot to these forums.

I'd be interested. I live in the west suburbs of Chicago, and I have been lucky to not get ticketed yet in Chicago or the suburbs. But eventually, I think I'll probably need to put the front plate on. Might as well be ready.

Will this fit an '05 sedan w/ sport pkg?

Also, it sounds like I won't need the factory bracket - will the license plate attach to your "backing"? I guess pictures would help once you have one made.

I'm insterested but I live in Hawaii. Anyway you can ship to the Aloha State (More like the forgetten state when it comes to shipping)? Does this fit an 05' coupe? I was going to order it from Stillen but the shipping was ridiculous.

I do appologize for not having a prototype avail for pictures at this time. I have a G Sedan trying fittament in 2 weeks, but will have a model readily available days after that. Is there a facia difference for the sport package?
oh and yes, this will fit the 05.

Thanks for your interest and yes I will ship to you no problem. the current coupe design fits all coupes so far. the model for the sedan will be avail at most 4 business days later.

another interested buyer from the middle of the Pacific.
pics of the gap between the bracket and the bumper would be nice... (please)
$42.50 shipped to Hawaii would be super nice!
i think '05 has a different thread size for the tow hook from all prior years...

I'd be interested in one for an '05 sedan. I was looking for Stillen to come out with one for the '05 sedan but then I forgot about it and haven't checked back -- I think yours is around $20 cheaper.

Not sure if the fascia is different for the sedan w/ the sport package...but thought I'd mention it. I've read in some posts that the front lip will only fit on sedans w/ the sport pkg - maybe a marketing scheme or maybe some truth...not sure.

yes, pics on the car from front and profile would be good.

why would u guys want a front license plate? i think it destroyes the look of our bumper, i kno there are states where its the law to have a front plate, but screw it, its just a $10 fix it ticket, and the odds are very slim to geting pulled overknocking on wood to not ginx myself llol
