Front Plate Holder

Is there a front plate holder that fits the ZL1? I want to avoid drilling holes into the bumper.

Thanks guys and my ZL1 thanks you too.

@SCHUSS
If I'm not racing, no need for the HD version right?

Like I said I have the light version, it's solid, it's only held on by two of the screws that are already under there, you can see them. I'm a little worried they may loosen up, only time will tell i guess, it's only been on for a week, ran it a few hundred miles yesterday checked it and still tight.

I just ordered the lite version. It looked sturdy enough to me. I also feared the other one being too strong, hitting something, then ripping far more of the underside apart. I'll probably use blue loctite on the screws for peace of mind.

larger/sturdier version is just fine. I have had it on my car for 6 months.

Looks good. I want to see if I can come up with a thinner frame.
