Tow hook plate mount

Anyone have a suggestion for a tow hook plate mount that has a backing plate that is as wide as a US license plate? I have the rho mount and since the backing plate is not as wide as a US plate, my plate gets bent on various occasions. I've search the interwebs and the only ones I find are not for our cars.

I bought one off amazon for like $90, works great. The plate just barely touches the bumper so I wedged some sticky foam between so it didn’t rub the paint off.

Thanks. This is similar to what I currently have and it's smaller than my license plate, which is the problem. But I appreciate the suggestion.
