First post, really enjoying the forum. Great information. Appreciate everyone's contributions.
Did not want to drill bumper, but wanted to be able to place a plate as needed.
I did order a skene mount. It will work centrally with the medium and long platforms, however, it is really not and on/off type of Mount.
The bracket on the attached images are from carbonio. They are for the Ferrari waffle grill. I have contacted them to see if they have a mount with wider spacing of the brackets that can possibly sit beneath the Mercedes 3 prong. Placement and removal takes about 10 seconds.
This is my solution after trying many different ways. It’s not an on/off option but works great so far. I use a soft silicon plate holder purchased from amazon and then a few cable ties.

Can you tell me which Carbonio mount that you are using in these pictures? This seems like a very good solution for the dreaded front plate.
Easy to keep in trunk in case you "forget to replace after the car show/concourse." Literally 10 seconds.

I took your advise and ordered one of these for my GTR. Very pleased with how well it works. Does not interfere with the parking sensors and takes seconds to remove and re-install.

I am having this dilemma on my car and your solutions seems to work best with what I am looking for! How did you attach your front plate to the plate holder? Just moved to Vancouver so I will order this!

Less complicated: License Plate Holder into Front Tow Hook:
thanks for the suggestion but I find the placement just really ugly and an eyesore being so high. Much prefer the lower centre placement personally
Agreed; the off-center placement and asymmetry molests my aesthetic/visual sensibilities, but most centered plate holder designs I've seen are not without their risk of paint marring - due to design of clamping mechanism/plate backing, in addition to obstruction of air flow to the lower coolers.
That looks pretty legit, does the bracket bottom out on the ground though? Got any pics of it installed?
No issues bottoming out. It's very low profile and our cars have very good clearance to begin with. Also does not impede the front camera.
IMO the best front plate option for our cars.
I can take some pics next time I take the car out.
