Show me your front plates - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Anyone using a Perrin / Grimmspeed / Cusco plate-holder .. show me your plates! I want to see your setup.

I am planning to have a custom plate with the Perrin kit but I cannot decide if I want to have a frame on this plate which already has an embossed black border.

I would be interested to see if anyone has photos from the top showing the projection of the plate holder. I purchased the Grimmspeed and I've seen the Perrin. The Perrin doesn't stick out as much, I consider this a good thing.
OP: You're forgetting the RHO plate too.

I used 3M double sided tape to hold my frame together for 2 months now and it is still holding very strong. It is just sitting at the same location as a stock would sit but at least no drilling and IMO looks better in the middle than on the side.

i got the tilt kit from Kinzo http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showt...highlight=tilt

it worked out great for me cause it lined up just right with the holes the dealer drilled in my bumper.

I'm at work but I think the dealer drilled my bumper which means I'm stuck.

I just use 3M double tape, just a couple of bucks..

empower-auto · 10-05-2012, 04:07 PM

Any others using Grimmspeed / Perrin kits that attach to the tow-hook? That's what I am looking for.

I have the Grimmspeed holder, but the only picture I have is with my bumper torn off.

That's what 86_ZN6 posted with his car. It's looking clean Ira!

Here's another look with only the mounting bolt and without the plate attached to it done after opti coat. Look left.
