License plate bracket - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Does anyone have the stock license plate bracket they would like to get rid of?

I'm looking the one in the first picture below. Notice the placement between first and second picture. Looking for the one that only sits on the grill and not overlap the painted part.

This one

VS. this one

I think the bracket is the same in both pictures but just mounted in separate places, although I could be wrong.

I thought the same at first too. But when I checked, the back side of the bracket would not line up/sit flush if mounted on the grill vs. bumper.

They are the same and it doesn't fit flush up against the grill. They are both the stock one except the bottom picture shows it incorrectly installed. When installed that way the top edge will dig into the paint.

Installed properly

If you mount it upside down it looks like this. I happen to like this.

I know what you're saying. I'll have to take close up pictures because I have seen both in person and I could've sworn the back sit was cut differently.
