I'm relocating to Dubai and since they require front license plates I'm looking for a no-drill license plate solution for the 53 and 63s. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Many forum members recommend slybrackets https://www.slybrackets.com/store/, in case you are still in USA, maybe you can purchase them before departing.

'21 AMG 53 here.
I'm moving to a "no front license plate" state and just removed my factory front plate bracket. (I had installed it new and had the same reservations.)

The only two holes (top of bracket) were almost invisible (not drilled but small self tapping screws).



The bottom of the bracket just clips in. (View from below.)


So, beyond looking like a big square lump on the front of your car, there's very little damage done to the car.

I think you have to be closer than 3 ft to see those holes.

Last time I was in Dubai, I noticed the sports cars had smaller plates that looked almost like adhesive plates, they were stuck on the sides and formed to the bumper.

Edit: Like this below. I wonder if this is an option for you.

Also, I remember BenzNinja has a coding option for hot countries. You may want to see if you need that or not.
