What sounds like the doors are falling off?

I was driving around today doing a few errands and EVERYTIME i hit a bump in the road I would hear this metal clanking type sound from the front passenger side of the car! it first happened and I was like WTF DID I HIT!! Figured damage was done and kept going.

5 minutes later CLANK CLANK Now its pissing me off and I'm worried because i KNOW there was nothing in the road and it sounded like it was ON my Camaro, so i pull over and do a walk around. NOTHING! WTF

Pull out and pick up speed to around 60 and hit a dip in the road which i knew was there so radio was off and I was listening intently. Low and behold it happens again and i narrow it down to the front passenger area.

Again I loop around and hit the same spot. At this point I realize what is making the noise .... and boy do i feel STUPID!
I have my front license plate sitting in the glove box ... and it was resting at just the right spot to be able to bounce around a bit and drive me insane. PHEW WHAT A RELIEF!!! My baby isnt falling apart! But i do feel a little less smarterer.

Yea the TSB is 4300-0194B12 (or something like that) the fix is to install the front plate bracket and put it on. BUT THAT WILL NEVER HAPPEN!!

If i heard it one more time I was off to the dealer and then it clicked Dumbass its your license plate! Live and learn haha
