Front Plate Recolation?

I was thinking of positioning them to either the left or right corner like the EVOs. Doing this I guess you will need to drill holes in the bumper, right? Looking at it though the plates are longer and may obstruct the fog lights a little... this has made me think twice about it.

I'd be lying if I said that I've never thought of that. I like that look.
Could always make bracket that bolts into the front tow hook location

You mean that little circular thing in the front bumper? I Kind of thought that was the European model's headlight washer or something. That's a thought though.
Yeah it looks like it can pop out. Its on the passenger side. I will probably make a bracket for mine soon
If there is interest for this I can develop something like that pretty quickly. Should be able to build a bolt on kit for less than $80 i would think.

I'd be happy to do it. Let me know and get an official interest thread going.

Friend of mine used the tow hook mount with a custom bracket on his Mazda 3, and it looked pretty good.

As long as you avoid the driver's side of the grille opening, where the OEM intercooler is, you should be fine.
I kinda did a mock up with a rod and a metal strip with my plate on it and wasnt to thrilled with the look. I will just keep mine off the car lol
Any updates 6th? Unfortunately I live in a region where you need to have a front plate. I see people who put their plates on their dash but I don't fancy the idea of being decapitated in an accident.
