How do u remove the front license plate frame???
i tried taking pics of my lights, but my friggin NY license plate is so white, it ruined EVERY pic of my lights...it's not the frame with screw-holes into the bumper...it attaches underneath the bumper, and i really don't wanna snap it off since it is my only protection if people hit me at the train station or in parking lots...thx

Use the clicking thing or a very short screwdriver to get the 2 screws out. Do not get shocked; your front bumber might be scratched due to the rubbing of the license plate holder. If I knew this I would have taken it off when I first left the dealer.

Yeah, I just got my car back from the body shop, (hit a deer). And I had then take the Front Plate Holder off since when it was on it scratched off paint under it. How much is that ticket cost?? I figure it's less than having the bumper repainted.

I haven't gotten stopped for the plate. (knock on wood...) I got pulled over for speeding but the cops never notice the front plate missing. Just give them the excuse empeters uses.

Scooter, if you still want to keep the plate and don't want scratches, try using 2 heavy duty plastic ties to attach it underneath the painted part. It won't protect you against other drivers who attempt to park.

maybe i just got a break, but my paint isn't scratched or chipped or anything...there's a lot of play with my bracket, so i can pull it off enough that i can see the bumper underneath...it's just dirty as hell
