Default Zealous license plate angler Qs (Pics + vid inside)

Whats up, who here has the Zealous brand movable license plate bracket? If you do, how is the quality and did you have to drill holes in the front of your bumper? Judging by the pictures i would assume so.

I have a bracket like that. I bought it from a member on here actually. 20$ shipped was very reasonable. Even though my car isnt on the road so the bumper is just chilling, it looks good.

NO you do not have to drill holes in your bumper, they are screwed in at the factory mount spots with no problem.

most likely to keep the brackets square so they both rotate together. dont make a smartass comment before analyzing

People say they use these to route air into the IC. I think its a pointless mod

But if you're just bolting it to where it goes anyways, I don't see the point. But whatever. I guess it's mad tite if your license plate can pivot up and down. YEAH!!!

Here's mine, no drilling. They just lined up with the holes on the bumper.

It was made to hide your plate from Camera's..They use them alot in Japan, since they have cameras on there freeways.

Agreed...because, as we all know, driving your god damn car forward doesn't cause air to get into your intercooler. You need a fancy pivoting license plate bracket to do that.

I was running no plate before too, but I didn't want to risk getting a ticket...also, my plate was scratching my bumpers' paint so I got one of these instead.
