You can try a front tow hook mounted plate holder.

I just got mine today, picked up the car 5/31. Ordered custom plates about 3 weeks before I got the car but those haven't come in yet.

I got mine in about 30-45 so about a month, month and a half. Of course since i got mine over 6 years ago things may have changed.

Grimmspeed also makes one. I like theirs a bit better, it offers more room for adjustments.

I'll put mine on eventually.

Ha! Same here, bought the car May 31st and got the plates the June 30th, exactly a month. Also bought the Grimmspeed mount, but just ended up installing the rear plates. Couldn't bring myself to muddle up that front with a license plate! I guess I at least have a fix if/when I get my fix-it ticket

Got mine on 6/1 and the regular plates came a few days ago, so about a month. Ordered vanity plates a couple of days after I got the car, and still waiting. The web site said 8 to 12 weeks for those plates to come, I hate waiting that long...
