Steve,
You already have holes in your bumper so no extra drilling?
I was not sure if I would like the off centered look but actually it looks different and oddly enough I have gotten some compliments to it. Heck...some yoyos think I "dubbed" the tub and expect to see suicide doors!
I have to be a little careful when the car cover is placed over it.
As you have said in earlier posts, not a big deal to put the plate on compared to what issues others face (poor Papa Joe Paterno) and remember that it is a license plate and it is impossible to make that look good, no matter if you bend it, roll it or copy and paste it, or wear it. Now that is an idea....attach a gold chain and wear it like a rapper.

The guy who makes them claims he's not making them anymore, but he can easily be persuaded if you'll get a few people and organize a small group buy.
Yeah, I don't love the buck tooth front plate, but I dislike revenue extortion from Uncle Sam even more....

Just went to my local Porsche dealer and they said that DC cops WILL ticket me if parked with the license plate shortened in size and tucked up into the grill with zip ties as it's "not displayed correctly".
I'm now going to look into the front plate mount route using the towhook. Hello Ebay! Must search for this 2nite. I'll be parking downtown again this weekend but will sadly have to take the other car due to the front plate thing not on it yet.

Can anyone confirm this?
Perplexed what to do short of buying the OEM front mount at this point and calling it a day (aesthetically - a bit sadly),

I do as RDS says above but only do that if I am rolling "dirty". If I am not worried about taking ANY chances about getting pulled over by the PO, I do NOT rock a front plate to take away from the lines of my 911. All vehicles just look cleaner without that stupid front plate. Ill keep the plate between my center console and passenger seat for quick access.
