Techart front bumper + license plate?

For those of you running front plates, how are you mounting them with the TechArt front bumpers? I guess this question also applies to those of you with any front bumper aside from stock.

I am not running one right now, but have a feeling my luck is going to run out soon. It's illegal to not have a front plate in California.

Does the techart bumper have a provision for the tow hook?
If so there is a kit that screws into the tow hook hole and actually looks pretty nice... well, nice for a plate on the front bumper.

Yes, the TECHART replica bumper from NR AUTO is precut to accept the tow-hook. Good idea uber.

Looks like our Medium bracket would also work on this bumper.

Techart front bumper + license plate?

I guess I have the same question about the rear plate.

Two of my cars are kept in AZ so I do not run a front plate (not required) and all of my cars have bras even in CA so I do not have front plates there as well and have never been called on it.

I did just put a Techart GT body kit on my 996 and the rear bumper is set up for a European plate.

The US plate looks a bit odd in the amount of space I have for it so I just drilled it to fit the euro mounts until I send the car in for paint.

Does anyone have a suggestion that may make the rear plate look a bit more fitted to the GT bumper?

Thanks,

Ponyboy
