Default License plate bracket (not oem)

What is everyone using for a license plate bracket for a 2013 Camaro that doesnt have to screw into the front bumper? I see SLP has one, any good?

Thanks

90% of us just leave them off. But I'm sure someone will chime in with one.

^^ That's exactly what I was going to recommend.. Another option is to put a bend in the middle of the license plate and use 3M body side molding tape and tape the plate to the bumper. Just make sure to clean the back of the plate and the center section of the bumper with rubbing alcohol before applying it. IMO, just give the tape 24 hrs for the adhesive to fully cure if possible. I did this with my front lic. plate on my 4th Gen camaro years ago and it's still secured really good!

I had a flat Jacfab SS bracket, great stuff. I made a mistake and bent mine.

I have been driving around without the front plate, no ticket until I parked for 2 days at OHare.

I want to add a splitter so I think I'm going to do something like I had before that bracket, try to find a light plastic bracket and ziptie that (with furniture pads underneath). Just zipties looks cheap, so I'm thinking I'll ziptie the bracket and then bolt on the plate.
