Retractable front plate for SS w/GFX - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Hey all, I've seen a lot of retractable plate options here but it doesn't seem like any of them take the front splitter of the factory GFX into account.

I do remember seeing one member mod the lower front grille and actually hide the plate away in that grille... I've been searching for an hour and I can't find it. Not sure if I'd want to cut into my front grille, but it's an option. Anyone know what I'm talking about?

Also, any other options for hideaway front plates for an SS w/GFX? I'll have my plates in a few weeks and it'll probably be a long while before I get a warning/ticket, but I want to know my options. Thanks yo!

Ooh, very nice. I may have to do this... is this yours by any chance? Does it require any additional bracket since the screws underneath on the bottom of the front fascia are recessed past the splitter?
