I've covered the contact point with vinyl so the bumper is protected somewhat.
by the way, los angeles isn't really 'in the middle of nowhere'. that being said, i do NOT parallel park my car if i can help it.

there is not parking in New York City for under $36 for a little while unless you parallel park a car.
Yeah, drilled holes are looking better. That or the magnetic solution. Parking now is the issue. Driving violation is an easy fix. the one you have with magnets using OEM seems the best, so long as you can isolate the back plate from rubbing a lot. Wouldnt just putting a wide piece of black form on the back of the bracket work? or that still grinds probably. I would have to figure out how to get behind the bumper like you did.
