Front License Plate Mounting Options

Has anyone found a nice way of attaching a front plate without drilling holes into the bumper?

Due to an unexpected meeting between my front bumper and a coyote at 80 mph... I now have a brand new "Hole-Free" bumper and I'm looking for other options.

I found this but I have no idea how it would look...
Front Plate Bracket

Thoughts?

So do we. Stillen also makes a mount like this, it looks sorta off-center but works.

I'm currently using the "no front plate" method...

Well, it's a cross post, but I just made my own for about $20, as described in this thread.

Not bad at all.
It looks good centered. Unfortunately, the mount hold on the 07 is off center.

If I was still fabricating, I'd make my own but I no longer have access to the machinery I once did... but if I was still doing that today, I wouldn't be driving my beloved G either.

Take 3 electrical plastic tie straps and tread them thru the lower center grill and then thru the holes in your mounting bracket and tighten them down. then attach the plate to the bracket with the screws and you have a no hole drilled front plate that looks great and will pass inspection and mine has lasted 15000+ miles and my daughters 21000+ miles with no problems. Costs pennies and less than 10 minutes.
