License Plate Relocation
Bought the same brackets from a different vendor so I could get the hood scoop mount too but for those of you concerned about the license plate, relocating is easy and worth DIY. two dimensions (up and out), single strip of steel (~$10) bent up with a vise and some holes. I used the factory holes in the hollow crossmember to feed bolts out of.
you could also use some oversized self-tapping fasteners if you wanted to work outside-in. I had to use a crossbar in front since the hole spacing on the plate was just inside that of the factory spots. Also all the info and write ups I have seen mention cutting the plastic grill. This is NOT necessary as you should be able to flex it out from behind the bumper in one piece and save for potential use later on.
