Front tow hook license plate
I dont want to drill my front bumper to add a license plate. I bought a tow hook plate frame and installed it last night. The only way I could get it to work with my parking sensors is to angle the plate at a 45 degree angle. Am I doing something wrong? Is there another way to do this? I know there is another mount that attaches underneath the front bumper. I would rather use the tow hook. Thx

My car came with a front plate bracket that has a couple clips that hold it to the center of the front bumper. It does have two holes where screws can be drilled into the bumper for extra security, but I think you could use some double sided tape instead to provide sufficient additional security.

Yes, running a front plate
I don't have front plates on my jeep or E63s and it's never been a problem in CA.
