Picked up a plate from Craig's Custom Mustang Brackets (http://www.ccmustangbrackets.com/) and put it on today.

Was very easy to install and fits perfect. From the pics its hard to tell but there is a small rubber piece that prevents the bracket from hitting the bumper. The bolts for the license plates are a little longer than they need to be, but they don't rub against the bumper.

 

Is anyone going to offset their plate to one side, say the driver's side? I think it would look really good on the 2010+ cars, and planned on doing it to mine, when I was going to get one...

 

Looks nice!!! I'm lucky, we don't have front plates in Tennessee.

 

If you feel the bolts are a little too long, you may want to install them with the bolt heads facing the bumper and the threaded ends pointing forward.

 

I may just grab a different set that are a lot shorter.

 

FYI...I happened to find by accident that the wingnuts used to secure the clamps had loosened after a few months, even though the bracket was still attached. I re-tightened them and plan to re-check periodically to ensure that situation doesn't happen. It would not be so nice to have the front plate fly off at highway speeds.

 

Blue Loctite FTW.

 

Thanks for the suggestion. I did not use this initially, thinking that I might be taking the bracket off periodically to clean the bumper cover area behind the plate or for car shows. It might be time to use it, given what I found.

 

This is one of the best ideas I have seen, I have yet to attach a plate to my 2010 because I dont want to any drilling, and even the flip up plate had drilling into the bottom of the car, this seems like a much better idea and I will probably order one of these soon.

 

I have the same bracket on my '08.

Has not moved in over a year of all season driving.

Great product!

 

Too bad they don't make one for the '10/'11 Mustang V6
