Hello, the TagArmor is the best for the rear. It’s expensive, but worth it. Also the rear pop out camera has just enough clearance.
Cheers

Only having 2 holes to put screws in, does it have any impact on if it will be secure enough where the bottom part of it wont move about.

Just wanna be sure the whole plate is carbon and not just a few piece of carbon wrapped around something.

Hello,
I have it installed now on my 2019. So it fits and looks perfect, especially with the carbon fiber spoiler and carbon fiber lower rear section. I have all available carbon fiber exterior and interior options. I must have purchased 4 other cheaper brands, and they all looked cheap. The TagArmor is thick, and matches well. Let me know if you do try it out.
Cheers.

Two questions, is the frame in question a front or rear frame, and if a rear frame, why a frame at all?

I don't have any frame on my rear plate as I think that even a CF frame would detract from the looks. That said, I suppose there are color combinations for the car and plate where a frame might enhance the overall appearance. In my case with Selenite Grey Magno and the California black plate with yellow lettering looks pretty good all by itself.

I wouldn't really care for a frame but ny state plate color combo is extremely ugly. weird construction hazard vest yellow combined with an extremely dark blue lol.
