On my 991.2 I glued rare-earth magnets to the inside of the plastic bumper cover and corresponding magnets on the plastic license plate mounting bracket.
The magnets that were glued to the license plate bracket are rubber coated so as not to mar the bumper cover when the license plate is installed.
I plan to do the same thing to my 992 when it arrives.

The guys doing my ppf/ceramic/tint are using a magnet front plate. The installer said they use about 80 lbs(!) Of magnets on the front bumper and plate bracket but it's rock solid and tested up to 150 mph.

I suspect he was exaggerating- he was putting it on a gt2rs when they showed me the demo. Will ask for actual weight

Isn't the cost of the magnet solution kind of pricey? How much are we talking? They have to remove the bumper and reinstall, so that's probably 2-3 hours of labor minimum, plus the cost of the magnets, etc. $1000-$1500?

The magnets cost about $12plus shipping from KJ Magnetics.

Fww, my wife and I came back from the airport Saturday night at 10:30, to find our MacTur had been impounded by Denver county sheriff for unpaid front plate violations. The tickets were issued solely for plate violation, nothing else, while parked on-street here in Denver.
Total? A bit north of $1100. Yes.
one thousand one hundred dollars. No appeals. No reductions. The fines keep “doubling” the clerk tells me. That was 5 tickets. The initial violations cost $90 😱
