Stillen front license plate bracket

Anyone have any experience with these at all? Im about half a click away from ordering one. Ive got 90 days till I need to register my vehicle, and unfortunately my state sucks butt and I need a front plate. So... just wondering what (if any) issues there are with this kit...

I don't have personal experience with it, however I've only heard good things about it. It's just rather expensive for a bracket IMO. GL

Pick it up, got it on mine, well worth it imo. No issues at all...better than drilling into the bumper.

Gary, do you have experience with infinitplate.com? I see the product looks the same as the stillen product but for about 20 bucks less. My concern, as always with any online purchase, is with ordering and reliability of the vendor.

AH, Va beach... my old stomping grounds. Im curious, about how much distance is there between the plate and the bumper? I take it there is no concern about the plate scratching the bumper?

I've been happy with mine. Make sure you measure first so you don't buy the wrong size one like I did. It was a annoying to get it exchanged.

Feel free to tell that to my state (and others) representative(s)... I agree, its a ridiculous law. But back to your response, why in the hell would I want your OEM bracket when Im looking for an alternative to drilling and mounting an OEM bracket into my bumper? LOL
