GT500 front tag relocator

Does anyone know of a kit to hide tag on GT500 ? I dont want to drill holes in my front bumper cover for tag or tag bracket. I have seen some that are supposed to flip up and slide away for a GT but have not seen one for GT500.

Cool Our fix on this

Our front plate is in a clear holder at The right lower of the inside of the front windshield. It is propped up and in total clear view from the road. Has been like this for over a year now. No holes in the front bumper and no law officers complaining about it's location, thus far. Knock on wood!! Good Luck! CalStang

I got mine from here: http://trailerrebuilders.com/services

Attaches to 2 of the existing mounting holes on the splitter, and just sort of "floats" in front of the bumper (touches nothing on the front) A two minute deal to remove if you want and is solid as a rock. It also provides a bit of protection from curb scrapes for the splitter.

I've won two "Best of Show" trophies at Mustang shows in the past three weeks, so it must look ok too...

I considered that one before I got mine. Talked to 3-4 people that had bought it. All said it was pretty flimsy/cheesy, one had already pulled it off and one had never bothered installing it.

It's alot of money for what it is, then again a lot of Mustang parts are. I really don't think it's flimsy and works great for me. My install is pretty sturdy. Pics of mine are in this thread...

Hey 07, I was in Canada, for the MCA Internationals, and saw several Ontario tagged Shelby GT500s with the front plate zip tied to the lower grill. Wasn't a bad looking way to go.
