There are 2 screws on the top of the front plate filler(the thing thats says Corvette). You can get in there with a screwdriver I think it was a philips head. You do NOT have to drill any holes to mount a plate there are hole behind the plate filler for mounting the plate. Good luck.

No, there are 2 small screws, unscrew those, and then work it out. GM makes a black trim piece that you use with the front plate on the C5, you will need that. I have my front plate on.
