Default EJ8 front plate mounting

Hey guys,

I have recently purchased a 2000 ex coupe and the bumper came with the holes drilled for a plate. The drivers side had a bolt rusted into it and the nut inside the bumper is loose in the first hole and the nut is missing second hole. Where can i find the proper replacement parts (someone said there is a kit at advanced?), what is the best way to change them, and does the plate mount directly to the bumper or is there a bracket in between?

And make sure you put it off to the side alittle, if it's dead center you'll have zero street cred.

You can get the correct parts at the dealer for not too much.

it's just 2 threaded parts that "clip" on the inside of the bumper.

Looks like your missing a few parts, the treaded part in the hole is #4 ... Honda Automotive Parts and a plat can be mounted with just those but do you have #s 3, 9, 23 and 24? 94
