Congrats on the SLS! I believe there are license plate brackets/holders/mount so you could avoid drilling holes.

thanks!
yes I am trying to find the mount/bracket that will avoid drilling.

not having luck finding it.

no problem and hmmm, I saw these sites from another thread I don't know how reliable it is though:

Otherwise you could try amazon such as:

Edit: On a side note, not a lot of people like the idea of side mounted front license plate but even Mercedes themselves are doing it so.... 2022 CLS 450
Edit2: You could also consider just placing the plate inside your vehicle, although it is risky, you might still get pulled over.
Some people would go with zip ties, no, don't do that please.
Here is another option, if you are located in Canada: https://www.rho-plate.ca/collections/all/mercedes-benz

yw, refer to your owner's manual PG 243. It shows where it is.

It is located on the top left of your grille but I recommend reading the instructions on page 243 so you don't damage it.
Edit: I found another mounting option although it isn't fully legal in some parts of the world so make sure to check before proceeding: youtube.com/watch?v=hGeXqr-lQfg

I too have just purchased a 2012 SLS roadster. I have ordered these brackets. We'll see how they work. https://skenebrackets.com/

Congratulations on your SLS Roadster purchase! I live in Maryland where a front plate is not required if there is no bracket. I purchased a 2012 SLS Roadster in 2018 & have been very pleased. Please consider joining the Gull Wing Group! This organization has supported the 300SL GW & RO since 1961, and the SLS GW & RO since 2020. Our yearly convention will be held at the Greenbrier Resort in West Virginia in 9/22. At least 5-6 SLS owners will attend from the Washington-Baltimore area. We will most likely caravan down together. We would love to meet you. Join us for the drive or meet us there. Google the GWG for more information.

I joined the GWG about 6 months ago and have been enjoying the magazine and a few Webcasts. At this point I'm planning to be at the Greenbrier and look forward to meeting folks.

I would be interested in attending the event at the Greenbrier. I live in northern VA. Never have I seen another SLS around here. Will check out the GWG website.

If you are in California, this is an option, but I don't know if there's sufficient space on your front bumper to legally comply:
