theres also hideaplate electric and non electric retractable, but they are subject to scraping and I am going to ditch mine eventually and had to mount it where the little motor will fit better in the dimple under the front bumper. I think I will most like go jacfab or make a custom mount to come out of the lower grill centered and have the plate bend at a slight angle. Many here have done front bumper repairs or used body panel clips like on the under hood insulation to fill the holes. When I did my zl1 rear spoiler I simply filled the holes with two part epoxy, then painted with touch up then covered with vinyl under the third brake light.

Texas law says it has to be on the most forward part of the vehicle.

After seeing a lot of these solutions I think I'll stick with the factory front mount.....some of these offset ones look terrible
