look at the hardware store for a couple of angle brackets to fit your needs

there is probably some obscure law regarding height of plate,,
but as long as its there,, its better than not~

Just keep it on the front of the bumper. It looks silly offset. You don't have a Mitsubishi

I like it but the RHO plate is kinda expensive for what it is.

Looks easy to do but it doesn't look good on a TL.
It's too high up imo and it should stay in the middle.

I heard on the rho plate you can adjust where you attach it to the plate. meaning you can lower the down if you know what i mean.
