front bumper license plate mount hardware?
 

All,

I've an 03 Wrangler. Just yesterday, I got my plates from the DMV.
However, it is not clear how to mount the plate on the front bumper -
there is no license plate holder of any kind.

Is there an aftermarket license plate bracket/kit that anyone can recommend?


Thanks!

It's an option "MDAS Bracket - Front License Plate" If you don't
want to see the Stealership, than use the short quarter inch sheet metal
screws sold as license plate bolts at auto any parts store, and screw it
to your rubber baby bumper.

Yeah, I ended up using 8mm by 25mm screws with some washers to space the
plate out a bit. Put it dead center.

I had been intending to use bolts secured from behind with nuts, but
there is a tubular reinforcment in the center of the bumper that makes
that difficult or impossible. So I just used the screws themselves.

Mounting on the left or right side would require drilling the plate, as
the rubber bumper guards don't allow the plate to fit over the holes
properly.
