I thought this would be shown in a new thread, so anyone with a 916 front end might not miss out on it, conversion or not. In Euro, it is no problem, as they have the slimmer plates, but here our plates are taller. Some have chosen not to use the plates in front , that is your paroggative. I didn't have one either, until I got pulled over by the police for it. These pictures are also helpful in the way that you can see how by using this bracket, how much of the radiator air hole is covered up , in case you have a conversion. The bracked came from the Nissan dealership, what car is uncertain (Altima, maybe ?). But it has two slanted bubbles in the back, that allow for a rivet to go through the bumper after the holes have been drilled. It sits nice and flush, and is sturdy. The entire back of the plate is supported by it. It mounts rite on to the bottom "lip" of the 916 bumper. The bracket was $40 dollars. Hope this helps. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Nice job on mounting your plate.
I don't have a front plate on any of my three cars, I have been pulled over a couple times but never got a ticket. The law is the law but I choose to ignore it (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Sometimes, it is easier to just go with the flow, rather than fight it or ignore it (IMG:style_emoticons/default/poke.gif) . Just make DOUBLE sure you dont have a (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer3.gif) after dinner or anything like that, because if you get a DUI and get your car impounded , for a simple violation that caught the polices attention, YOU WILL shoot yourself in the foot !!!! I would really consider it , especially if you like to have a drink every now and then , and then cruise the 9.
