ZL1 Addons Plate Holder

So i was installing my ZL1 Addons plate holder and i see that the plate holder sits very very close to the bumper, and it looks like the back of the screws are about a hair distance from touching the bumper... Anyone else have this plate holder and have any suggestions? Would maybe adding another washer or two as spacers on the allen bolt work and still hold everything in place? Will air force flex the plate holder to where the screws will make contact with the bumper?

I will as soon as I get some double sided tape, that is a great idea. maybe I'm being paranoid, but the screw is just too close for comfort

I bought one too, but no plates to mount yet. My car already has scrapping issues so that other vendor's solution would not have worked for me.

If you don't like the plate holder you may want to look at the Sto-n-Sho plate holder. I have it on my car.

If you ever plan to get a Splitter installed they have one that extends a little further out so you can have a Splitter on your car.

I decided instead to use zip ties, as removing and reapplying double sided tape will be more of a hassle. I'll get it on tomorrow and post pics, its too dark to do right now.
