Congrats on the incoming car!
My silicone frame is just a super-simple one from Amazon. This is what I ordered: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...e?ie=UTF8&th=1
My screws were comically expensive for what they were, but rather than figuring out sizing and ordering something through McMaster-Carr, I took the easy way out and just ordered through this link. They are really well made and will never need to be changed: https://titaniumcarparts.com/collect...late-fasteners

Semi related question. For those of you in texas and other states that require a front plate. I know there are several good options including Carbonio. But do you guys typically put them on or just go without it? Obviously purely subjective question, just wanted a feel for what folks do. thx
I haven’t ran a front plate on any of my cars here and haven’t had a problem (knock on wood)

In my youth, I used to pick up a basic black frame and some color-matched touch-up paint, and then would paint the frame to match the car. Gave a very clean result. (Looked exactly like the example in this post, just DIY.)
Now that I’m older, ain’t nobody got time for that **** - and the silicon protects the paint from being rubbed by the plate and/or a frame.

I also use this too, as I like the machined screw vs tapping screw if you mounted directly to the bumper/OEM license plate holder

For the US spec car, which Fasteners are the correct ones? Bolt or screw? Length and size? Thanks in advance.
