Golf V R32 :: How To Mount Front Plate In Holeless Grill In A 2 Plate State
May 25, 2008
For those people who received a holeless grill in a 2 plate state how did you mount your front plate. I am supposed to have the holeless grill installed this Wednesday. I was thinking about using zip ties and mount it underneath it's original location but I am afraid that I will be blocking the radiator. I could do it by the side grill.

Anyone know where I can find a plate less grill called VW and they want $847.00 and ECS wants $690.00, Urotuning has a good price $300.00 but only comes in chrome or black, looking for the same color silver. Just bough my car couple of weeks ago and noticed the grill is cracked in three spots and I cant stand the holes. If anyone knows a good place please let me know.

My Ultra white IS350 is 15 months old, and when I took out the screws to my license plate today, I noticed a little bit of rust on the mounts (where the screws would go into).
I believe this is a pretty common issue for all cars - essentially, the mount was sprayed with body paint, but the paint would be stripped when you put a screw in. It's just a matter of time before that happens.
I am just concerned it would rust through my trunk if I continue to leave it.
FYI: I already use stainless steel screws

I recently broke my rear shock mount plate, it is rusted to crap. So I need to fix it, I was gonna weld it but there isn't enough metal to weld. It looks like it can bolt in bolt out. I am having trouble find a replacement.

I have a set of ST coilovers, installed on my tiguan s4motion they ride great but have noticed clunk noise coming from tight strut and I'm pretty sure it's the pillow mount plate, is there anywhere to get replacements or a better plate? ST website doesn't have them separately...

Mounting front license plate somewhere other than the "official" mounting location? I don't like the thought of putting holes in my front bumper. I can move it down a bit such that the holes are in the bumper just above the air opening. So, they would be less noticeable. This would block some of the airflow through the lower opening. But, unless I'm driving in 100+ deg temps, it probably won't matter.
I could also offset it to the right or left in the lower opening.

After going through the car wash several times now in my 2010 RX 350, my front license plate has been bent in all different directions. Car wash guys say it's due to not having a full plate holder, where as 4 screws secure the plate vs. only the top 2 as we have. Any plate holder from another vehicle that I might adapt to overcome this?

I plan to remove the front license holder from my car, fill the holes, and paint/clear coat/sand them. Any recommendation as to what to fill the holes with (I'm not going to use a plug.) Exactly what the bumper cover is made of, I can find the right material to bond to it.

had a couple questions about installing the front license plate. I currently do not have any holes drilled in the front bumper (though I can see the places where they are supposed to go). I have the black plastic attachment. What is the best way to drill those holes? Can it be done if I don't have a drill (i.e., just with a screwdriver and force)? Is this something the dealer might do for free (I don't have a warranty, bought my car used)?

I've took the two screws that hold the thing to the bumper off, and its still soild as before i took the screws out. Is it held on by the rub strip?

I have a 2010 RX450h and live in Minnesota where it is hard to hand wash my car. The darn car washes tend to catch the front of my license plate frame and bend it and the license. I have tried several different plate frames and none worked. Minnesota plates are now the thin, non-stamped plates so they are very flimsy.
I even tried putting a plastic plate behind the license to make it more rigid but that failed too.

yesterday I got the idea to move the plate bracket on the front all the way down so it gives it a much cleaner look and doesn't obstruct the grille. To do so test mount the bracket on the lowest position, then have someone hold it. Then you take a 1/8 drill bit and make the two new wholes then put everything back together.

I need to mount a plate on front bumper and there are dimples for 2 holes. Do I just use self tapping screws here as I've read you don't need a mounting frame?

My 1.2 54plate Corsa has been dropping a very small amount of fluid its dropping from the front left hand side but not sure on exact location the fluid is to watery to be oil I think but is worrying me it seems to be covering a fairly large area under the car but it doesn't drop only in very small quantities?
