Confirmed. This pic is the only time the mount has actually been on the car, license plate now mounted to backing plate and kept in frunk in case I get stopped. (which now I will since I just jinxed myself!)

I also have it for the front. ITS GT4 and I found it a little heavy but it is well built. The coolest thing about it is the quick disconnect for washing car, etc. I think it is a little expensive given the exchange rate, import, etc.
Message me and you can see the car in person before deciding.
I am odd enough that I asked for no holes drilled in the back as well. So I used US Millworks solution in the rear.
Can you post a picture of your rear set-up? I'm going to order one for the front and I may order one for the rear after reading your post. Question - did you go with quick release for the rear mount?

Thank you! You have the regular one w/quick disconnect? Maybe i should looks at the lightened version eh?

Looks good but I hope the next time you'll put it on straight. Those of us with OCD cringe to see that!

Thanks!
I did go with quick release mount. I’ll describe for now (will try to get a photo posted soon).
It does stick out more than an inch. I have the plate at the lowest possible position so the top of my plate is at the middle level of the “official” spot in terms of vertical positioning. It certainly looks odd in a way. Life has not allowed much time for me to mess around with it so I left it that way (I wanted to just get my plate on).

No need for a picture, your description answered my question on how it fits in relation to the rear bumper cover. Thank you for describing it!

With some maneuvering, I think one can mount it centered vertically. Quick release might have to slide plate from bottom up with pins at the bottom. Will likely need a tool to get the pins in (my hands likely won’t reach). That’s why I mounted it the currently way for expediency. Or I fool myself by saying lower center of gravity.
Yes, I know, I added unnecessary weight and extended moment of inertia.

Thanks everyone, I ordered a lightened version with the quick release kit. Anyone interested I recommend checking out the videos on the US Millworks site. Everything you need to know

No worries, just offset it by not having a latte in your cup holder on spirited drives...
