Just wanted to know if mounting the license pate to the side of the grill with zip ties causes any problems? thanks.

it wont cause any problems ... but why dont you zip tie it down low near where the foglights are on the mmc 3g? it'll look cleaner IMO

you know what looks even cleaner no plate at all in the front... to bad it depends where you live..

^ very true but too bad im in one of the states that require it -___-

i personally wouldn't use zip ties to mount the plate. there was a guy who posted up info about his plate holder which is what i ended up doing. if you have an AutoZone near you, they sell a License Plate Relocator which is about 10 bucks and it's really easy to install. Just drill 2 holes in upward into the fog grill area and screw the mount in and screw your plate on.

i'll take a pic and post it so you have an idea once i find the time.

Someone also makes a plate relocator to where the tow hook is. I'm not sure on the price or the manufacturer, but it's the best and cleanest that I have seen.

it's called RHO Plate. 70 bucks is the shipped price i think. too high for a plate relocator but it does look clean..

Personally I think it looks like crap. The plate is places way too high.

I'm sure your talking about the lower side grilles. I had mine mounted there in the past. Zip ties worked fine for me. But, I put 2 layers of duck tape on the back of the plate. You don't want anything hard like metal rubbing on the paint. Also I used a plate cover to keep the plate clean/protected.

The last thing i wanna do is poke another hole in the bumper..i already have three from the license plate holder..

Powerflow I taped a few pieces of foam to the back of the plate to prevent any scratches.

heres a pic...let me know what u think

thats why the RHO plate is perfect for relocating the license plate. sure 70 bucks is steep, but its a good inch/inch and a half off the bumper mounted directly on the tow hook thread. smack it hard with anything short of a hammer and it doesnt bend or flex. ive had rocks hit my plate with no issues. the plate doesnt rub, i have my piece of mind, it doesnt block airflow to the bumper and its a whole lot better than the stock location.
