Default just thought of this

So I just got a new bumper from dodge, and paint matched to my truck. My problem now is I don't want to drill holes in it to mount my front license plate. Anyone have any ideas on really secure ways for me to mount this without screwing up my bumper?

Move to different state? Haha

New Jersey is one of the states that requires front plates on all vehicles and it's a pain in the ***. I did the best I could on mine and bought a rigid, black license plate frame with a clear lens in it to try to make it look as good as possible. There's no way around it here since the popo ticket you for not having the front plate attached. [:@]

Yeah, as you can see in my Sig, that's what I did too, just trying to think of a way to put it on without violating my new painted bumper!
