Doing My First Mod

jcyamaharider · Jan 29, 2015

Well this isn't as cool as exhaust or superchargers or wraps but to me it is worth the money and worthy of my first mod to the car. The sto-n-sho license plate holder!! I didn't want to drill into my bumper and I take the plate off from time to time. Later I will be posting cool mods but for now, this is it.

I am super curious to see how this turns out! I live in a state that requires a front plate and certainly am not drilling my bumper. I'm driving around waiting to get a ticket for no front plate and have looked at this several times as the best option. Now that you're the guinea pig, post pictures of the install and let us know how you feel it turned out. This will make or break the decision for me

PS The Blower, Wheels, Exhaust and Wrap can all be next

I tried to fabricate a couple different ways if hanging my plate, as well as looked for something already made. I could get anything to work the way I wanted. Where did you find this mount?

Never mind, I see it's on Amazon now.

Well I got the bracket installed today. Very simple mod and very sturdy. I like the aluminum and anodized black color. Took all of 10 minutes to install. One needs very few tools, t-20 torx, 10 mm socket, 7mm, socket, 1/4 drive rachet, 90 degree drill and a small drill bit. Slides in and out no problem.

I'd hold out until they make the automatic retracting unit!

jcyamaharider · Feb 3, 2015

I think the auto unit is 115.00. Defiantly cool, but I needed the plate on ASAP as to avoid getting a ticket. I need to put on a license plate frame, think it will make it look a little better.

@jcyamaharider do you have any pics from the front of the car with the bracket folded down and the license plate stowed away?

Ryan J. G. · Feb 3, 2015

Its a stow away bracket? That's awesome!!

Just did that mod myself yesterday! Really easy and slides out so damn quick, then I put it in the trunk to stow it away!

Oh it comes off and stows?. I was thinking maybe it folded down and slid under the spoiler/bumper. That actually gives me an idea of how to build mine now. I'll take pictures if it works. Nicely done.

I was thinking that it stowed under the bumper too... Hmm...

jcyamaharider · Feb 6, 2015

Yep just like everyone said, pull the spring pin and out it comes.

Ryan J. G. · Feb 9, 2015

So...a tuck and stow isn't gonna work like I had imagined. While the plate would e stowed under the bumper it would be subjected to parking curb torture. Thus destroying the plate and possibly the bracket itself.

They make new pistons every day, so why worry?
