Front License Plate
I know we do not want to drill the bumper and part of what I do is design license palte mounting systems.
Here is my first shot at the Zl1 Pardon the picture, cell phone...good camera charging and rain outside. Mounts to two screws on the bottom of front of the splitter. Try to make it easy to install and remove.

I wouldn't want it blocking the lower grill in any way.

Actually it blocks it less than the stock dealer mount. It is at the front edge of the splitter. It is being designed to remove with just two screws.

If they can come off easy then yes it's a good idea.

The brackets are heavy guage stainless steel monuted to a stainless steel bracking plate for license plate mounting,
There is almost no flex in the plate at all.

Hidden brakets cause loss of ground clearance. The motor burns out due to water damage and overall not a good solution. Also they are very expensive. I have been selling and designing this type of product for seven years. My designs are less expensive and easy to use. On this note I am not attempting to sell them here just asking for ZL1 owners thoughts.
