Default Front License Plate

Has anyone sourced a front plate bracket that fits into the tow hook hole?

I have this one:

Worked nicely after they sent me a longer shaft.

There was a guy in Toronto I think that was offering to scan your license plate and print it onto a glossy adhesive sticker that, at first glance, looked like a well fitting original!!
Not legal I'm sure!!!

I have the US Millworks one. For me, it has been OK, but not great.

I needed to take it off so I could actually get a tow. It broke in the process and I needed to buy a second one.

I may be missing something, but it does not seem to lock in place. I occasionally find it tilted to one side and, after a long interstate drive, the wind has caused it to tilt forward.

I made a no-holes front bracket that stuffs up into the air deflectors on S4+ cars. Holds the front plate just clear of the front bumper shell, at an angle that matches the shell. You can sort of see it in my avatar picture. It comes off quickly, four screws from underneath just behind the plate, for when the plate isn't needed or wanted. Like escaping from a crime scene, or when the car is on display. Someplace here I published dimensions and such for those wanting to make their own.
