can you post a pic of the back of the bumper, specifically, of the crash beam?

if the crash beam isn't attached to the bumper skin yet, you could get a universal mounting bracket, and use self tapping screws to attach that to your crash beam then mount your plate up.

Yes, I believe they mount theirs to the support. If you don't have the EDM support, you can probably screw it into your stock one.

Why don't you use a "license plate re-locator", such as the password JDM one. I'm sure you can find a no name brand one for 1/4 of their price, lol. I can't post images, but you could simply use google. (:

if the cops in your area arent picky just put it in your hatch window, thats what i had to do, because i my bumper mounts are rusted out, so im pretty sure my bumper is gonna fall off someday

1. Your missing the area where the plate would go...need to make something to go there.
2. The Euro/JDM bumpers have ALOT less actuall crash beam...if your ok with being screwed in an accident, put it on as is and make something out of flat bar to mount the plate to. Shouldnt be hard to get a piece of flat bar drill some holes in it bolt the plate onto it and bolt it to the bumper...I would try and figure a way to reinforce that bumper though.

Have you tried to use your old license plate bracket? Should screw off the old bumper... you might be able to reuse it. GL.

i havent really tried anything with it yet but i was thinking the same thing. im going to mess with it this weekend and see what i can come up with. the thing is i really am trying to stay away from drilling holes in the bumper but if it comes down to it i will.
