Front License Plate Holder No Drill 2022 GTS with ACC
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.

Did you buy the Stow and Show for the 2017-2018 GTS ?
Looks like it should work.

I’ve had them on a 911 and works like a charm.

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.

I also use the SlyBrackets, with their "Leveler" to adjust the vertical angle. I don't have access to a 2022 to check, but there are probably places on the lowest section of the grill where you can find a spot for the "grabbers" to hook on. On my 2021 GTS I have it attached to the opening for the A/C condenser, below the place where the factory mount would be drilled into the bumper cover (shivers!). There is a plastic stiffening panel that is perfect to attach the SlyBracket. I like the low mounting position, and it is well out of the way of the ACC sensor and surround camera. Now if only I could get Vermont to change the shade of green on their license plates...

I'm also looking for a no-drill alternative and was in touch with Rennline regarding their tow hook bracket. They won't have one for our MY 22 Macans until year end and have a wait list if interested. The SlyBracket looks workable though for our cars they only fit in the higher position as shown in this pic from their website. Though I'd prefer a lower position, it looks like this would work with ACC.

I spoke with Sto and Show they are getting a 2022 Macan in their shop soon and will be making an updated bracket that fits the Macan III bumper. ETA is not known yet but they are working on it.

Don't know if Carbonio uses the existing 2021 version like mine, or they have a new one for 2022. Looks like mine might fit without blocking the ACC, but not sure.
I forgot to detach it twice for the car wash and it stayed on. YMMV.
