Front License Plate Holder No Drill 2022 GTS with ACC
#61
I bought this https://www.slybrackets.com/store/ for my Macan GTS '21, but I don't have ACC. I was looking at the 2022 front to see if there are slats where you can place the bracket without interfering with the ACC, but it appears optimal spots are limited.

You might checkout SlyBrackets, I was able to hang the VT tag with no drilling. (https://www.slybrackets.com/)
QUOTE=Nickshu;18130338]Anyone find a no-drill solution for a front license plate for the 22 Macan GTS with ACC?
Carbonio - Looks like it won't work with the ACC sensor
Cravenspeed tow hook - Shows only fits up to 2018
Stow and Show - I bought one and the angle is all wrong for the new bumper.
At this point I would settle for just a tow hook mount that will work until I can find something different or more comes out on the market. Anyone find one that works? My plates are arriving next week...
Thanks in advance.[/QUOTE]

Jumping into this thread. I have two Macans that I am trying to buy no-show license plate frames for. A 2023 Macan Base model and a 2023 Macac GTS. They both have the ACC ball because it is standard on all 23 Macans. Is this the same bracket for both?

I just installed the Sto n Sho and am happy with the choice since it's so easy to remove/install the plate and it fits very snugly along the bumper molding as it protrudes outward. Only drawback is the possibility of dragging it going up or down sloped driveways or bumping into a parking curb. I've had the tow hook type and never cared for the position and you need to have to carry a wrench for removal. A couple of ideas:
1-Neither of the OEM screws were very tight so don't over tighten the new ones..I used thread locker.
2-If you don't have a 10 mm socket, 5/16" works with a 5 mm Allen key as a 1/4" driver
3-White spacers definitely go external to the bracket, I assume to prevent overdriving the screws.
4-Price was $88 shipped with the discount code that popped up on their website. Carbonio is ridiculously over priced IMO.

Interesting that the OEM Porsche screws were not tight, mine engaged many turns of the threads and tightened up very nicely.
Great pics.

Looks great.
One small suggestion based on experience with an earlier vehicle: pad those bolts so that they don't scratch the paint when they eventually get pushed back into contact with the bumper cover (due to someone parking by ear, etc.).
