Plate mount

[FBaxteR-S]

I'm not sure what the point is of providing such a subjective opinion on a matter such as this.

I think the tow hook mount looks fantastic (imo) and I would pick that over drilling holes in the bumper to preserve the clean look (imo) if I ever want to take it off for an occassion (imo) and give the future buyer the option (imo).

Clearly people are free to decide their own opinion on this option, and with pictures as evidence, not much additional info is needed for people to form that opinion... (imo)

**Using a term such as retarded to describe your taste in the tow hook mount is also insulting and disgustingly indefensible.

We have those in stock @JRP. If you go to classifieds Canada section I have a full post there.

Thank you

I ordered an offset plate mount from Rho-plate. They're in Burnaby, so you don't have to order internationally and the shipping is quick.

You like the look of the tow hook. Lots do. You expressed your opinion. I don't like the look of off-center license plates. Lots don't. I expressed my opinion.

That is the point. Freedom of speech. If you don't understand the point of providing a subjective opinion on a matter such as this why provide a counter-opinion?

I didn't buy (nor do I drive) the car with thoughts in my mind of re-selling it. If I did I wouldn't enjoy it to the fullest as I'd always be wondering if what modifications I made or how I drove it would make the car more difficult for me to sell. I drive it to enjoy it. And quite frankly, if I had the tow hook plate I'd enjoy it less since every time I see one it turns my stomach. If that hurts your feelings I'm sorry for you.

You attempt to take the higher ground but you use it to cast stones. I wasn't arguing the mental capacity of anybody who would choose to do it since I realize beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

Anyway, I see no real point in conversing with you since I've read over some of your other posts and you strike me as the type of person to walk around forums with hairspray and a lighter. Nice troll job though.

tell your dealership not to install your front plates...just use zap strps for the front plate...be patient...accessories will come out soon for the front plate


if I were you i would also get them to leave all the stickers on, not wash the car & get it detailed by someone professionaly

I was thinking of zip ties, but how does that work? Where do I hook that up o the plate to the grill?

I just looped it through the grill...just temp for now till more plate holders come out in the market.

I looped mine till my plate holder came in, pushed the grill right out of place due to wind being pushed on the grill from the plate. Don't recommend for to long.

Damn I didn't know there'll be a side effect, but I'll definitely try this solution for now until like you guys said, until better stuff comes out.

Epic failure to spot sarcasm, and my "counter-opinion" was purely to provide another example of how useless these opinions are, but good job.

The thread wasn't "What is everyone's opinion of the tow-hook mounts?" now was it?

Mine were zip-tied prior to the relocation kit coming in but it blocks air flow.. so I'm not sure if you want to use that as a long term solution.

I checked my front grill & no problems being out of shape or anything
