i believe most of them use a special angled plate bracket, but i'm sure the look could be achieved with a simple homemade bracket.

My front plate had never been mounted, so my front bumper is nice and clean with no holes. I mounted my plate with long bolts and metal brackets, it slants down and sits real low, looks clean and can't get me pulled over.

Re: front license plate mod

Hi guys!

Dunno if this is of much help, but I've saw this on sale at one of the 'HalfCut Shops' in KL. It's actually a flexible arm that you can twist around to get the angle you like.

I'd guess it's available for sale in Japan coz the packaging I saw is all written in Japanese...

Cheers!
