Running out of options. Other option is to put it in the tow hitch area, but that may block one of the parking sensors. However, that could be a viable solution for a little bit so long as the car doesn't scream at me the whole time I'm driving.
You're a married man, you should be used to screaming by now.

That's dumb. It doesn't scrape at all or even come close.

It fits right into the existing holes underneath. No drilling and Easy to take off and on.

Well... here we go. Just ordered a STO N SHO plate bracket. At least they give a 15% mil discount. So that's good. Free shipping means I have no idea when it's gonna get here but I have till September on my temp plate.

Nice! The install is just lining up the bottom piece with the holes that are already there (under the front end) and it's done.
