No Holes Lincense Plate mounting

Hello all.
If you guys don't want holes drilled into your front bumper, tell the dealer to hold off, check on line. There are a couple of sites that have an easy to mount bracket that doesn't require holes drilled into the bumper.
I don't think I can mention their names here.

I hate the thought of ruining the mean look of the Camaro, the aerodynamics, and the airflow to the engine all because of some ugly license plate.

No worries, this has been discussed numerous times on here. Most people are aware of the options. I'm waiting for jacfab to come out with a bent style mount.

Sto N Sho has always been a good one to use, and the new one doesnt require any drilling at all, it uses the bolts that are already under the front bumper, which is cool.

^^^...who cares about holes if you're going to put the plate on and leave it on. Just drill them and get er done.

It's the poor looks and aerodynamics of the plate that I don't want. Putting zip ties and 3m tape on it just makes things worse.

Zip ties or tape as an alternative to permanent holes in the car make the look and aerodynamics worse? I trimmed the flange off the perimeter to make it a little smaller.

Ideally I'd like to use a magnetic strip if that could be made to work.
