Just recieved mine in the mail, and I have a question. Has anyone tried this, I really dont want to drill into my front bumper and mess anything up. They sent me 2 big silver screws. Has anyone drilled into the bumper? Thanks
yea i did. i think you'll be fine, i drilled two tiny holes then just wedged the screws in there.. looks great man go for it. my avatar is how it looks on myne.
drilling should go fine... im not talking from experience though seeing as i placed my order for one today , but ima drill it the day i get it hehe
yea ebay is where i got myne, heres the link http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/2008...007QQitemZ170221850618QQrdZ1QQsspagenameZWDVW
Yeah thats where i got mines just came in today actually.Came really fast..I will be installing it this weekend.
how much you got it for... got mine from the dealer for $30...i have to trim mine a little to make fit the bumper, cuz the evo x has a bulkier front than the gts...
i think the one from ebay is just a piece of plastic...it looks so much different from the real evo x liscense plate holder...the evo one is design to face straight forward unlike the ebay one which faces a litte more diagonally...get what i mean...
Im lucky just need to have one plate on my car and it stays on the rear. I have the Chrome Lancer plate holder myself.
I agree, I thought the ebay version looked chincy as well. Vik, Do you have any more photos close up of your install? I have my mitsu evox plate on order so I am trying to get an idea on install before I get it. the dealer said that it has to be perfect because this plate bracket leaves "two giant holes in the bumper" lol... so I was hoping you might have had some pics.

i meant it was a little more outward, and unlike the ebay ver. its more diagonally-to-the-side...you now what i mean...kind a hard to explain without visual... and my plate holder looks exactly the one on the pics you have with a little trim thats all....
