I used these small plastic squares off of the stock license plate bracket...



...and JB WELD'd them on my billet grille. After the JB dried, I painted them with black touch-up paint to match the rest of the grille.

Then I just bent the LP down the middle to the correct angle and installed it.

Now I can take my LP off whenever I want to and I don't have to worry about an additional bracket, and you don't even notice those plastic squares.

Tip: place a a soft water resistant material behind the license plate before you mount it so that the lp doesn't scracth your grille

INSTALL PICs

You can buy those square things for mounting the LP at any auto parts store, the kit runs about $4-$5.

EBAY grille is only like $44 shipped.

Later.

Were you heading down El Camino last night around 6:45 or so yesterday evening?

If that was you, your car sounds good! I was in my truck on the way to BW3s at a light when I heard it, and whipped around to see you running down the road in my rear view.

Can't you mount the SLP bracket on the side? I ordered one too, I got a ticket in my Formy no less.

If you already have a grill, I would just get some heavy duty zip ties and attach it that way. Or you can mount it behind the grill, but that is technically illegal, although it would be somewhat visible.
