Having purchased the car without a front plate holder, I wasn't going to go and screw a new one on to the bumper. So I purchased a RHO V2 plate holder. The quality of the holder is great, just didn't like how exposed the hole was with the plate ideally positioned.
So so I purchased a second tow hook cap and modified it so the bar would just stick through. A little bristol board, sharpie and dremel and was able to keep most of the tabs and cap sits securely.
Currently the plate isn't at its lowest setting and can move it down now without having a larger gap.

I that location I don't have any issues. I haven't really moved it around much to check its limits though. I also don't know if the 2012 has different locations compared to 2016s.
Clean workmanship, but why go through all that trouble and end up with an off center plate at the end? I know we don't want to drill holes in our bumper, but to me, the offset plate is worse.

I guess it's just a matter of ones personal preference. The offset doesn't bother me at all. I also like the fact I can take it off fairly quickly and take photos without a plate at all on the front if I choose. This to me is a much better solution than a permanently affixed center mount.

Thrilled how it turned out, but not so much with it being bug season and no time for a wash before snapping. They're my friends now.
