A buddy of mine used to shove a sock or two under the license plate. Sounds weird, but it worked.

Had alignment checked and to my surprise it was off quite a bit from my previous alignment done in may.

Seems weird to have it go out in a short time.
Only changes made were ARP studs and 10mm spacer.

I put Dynamat behind my rear plate, then some foam inserts where the plate contacts the trunk. No more rattles or vibration.

you can also crease the top of the plate slightly so tightening the screws pushes the bottom edge into the car.

I drove it 12 consecutive Sunday mornings at the end of 2017, pretty much completely wearing out a pair of RE-71Rs on it.

I miss my old car terribly.
