2021 GLE 53 SUV 22" wheels

Before you buy a "Bumper Thumper" license plate bumper guard shock absorber.....

Brought a Front Bumper Guard license plate frame for my 2021 GLE 53. Simple to put on and would protect the front bumper from those that like to "bump park" when parallel parking. But, there was a problem.
It protrudes far enough where it partially blocks the front camera. Some maybe able to live with the blockage but myself, I cannot.
So anyone thinking about purchasing one of these for their 2020+ GLE's with front cameras, this is what you'll see.
Hope this helps.

I have this one which doesn't look as massive as yours: https://www.weathertech.com/bumpframe/

Doesn't seem to get in the way of the front camera nearly as much. It was nighttime with weird lighting so the image quality isn't great.
