I did a simple one - I went with Stainless/Chrome (it looks dark in the pic, but it is chrome/silver color) to match my exhaust, targa bar, porsche lettering, and ED wheels. I got it on eBay for under 20 bucks. Did a Carbon Fiber one for my Mac and GT3 Touring (they have CF accents).

I went with a simple, black silicone frame and some nice, wide-headed black screws.

The silicone frame is nice because it doesn't cover much of the plate.. just the very edge. It also runs behind the entire plate, acting as an isolator between the plate and the body, preventing rattles.

Wide headed black screws do a good job of covering the entire hole / slot in the license plate. I can't stand seeing little open bits of the license plate slot sticking out beyond the mounting hardware.

Silicone frame from Amazon. Protects the paint and hard to tell there's even a frame there.

Brianja, love the look of the black silicone holder against the green, which we'll have when we pick up our AG Targa 4 GTS at the Atlanta PEC in March -- can you please share with me where you got it? Many thanks in advance for your help with this!

I usually don't use a frame...but this one is nice. I have trimmed out the corner with the expiration sticker since this picture was taken.

I really like the "slimline" (low-profile) Porsche plate frame. It's very high quality and has screw caps that actually screw onto their base - very secure and trick, and something I haven't seen before.

I purchased two of these from Amazon - they are inexpensive but appear to be good quality

Congrats on the incoming car!

My silicone frame is just a super-simple one from Amazon. This is what I ordered:
Amazon Amazon

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

I kept my Experience Center Delivery frame on. Surprisingly have had some comments on it at cars and coffee.
