Some guy on here was selling it earlier this week for like 20 bucks shipped. And he said he'd paint it for an extra 5 or so.

you can make them out of your front lower license plate bracket and a dremel. Just cut off the back part of the bracket and drill a hole in that and your bumper where you want it to be and them mount it.

You can also use $2 "L" brackets from Home Depot. Then just buy some screws/nuts/washers, drill the holes, and you're set. Saw the results on a different board, and it looked great.

EDIT--Wait, n/m. This is for an EG. What I saw was for an EK, so it may not work the same because it doesn't place the plate in the same location as how that eBay thing does.

It's much different in California. You can and will get pulled over for no plate sooner or later, and they've heard every excuse in the book as to why it's not mounted.

ive heard of people getting $90cad tickets in canada for no front plate. and relocating your plate is maDd jDm y0! if you dont have an intercooler to block, what's the point of moving your plate? so you can clearly see the stock plate holes?
