Sorry to see this man. My front plate is in my glove box!!! I only take it out when I'm on the HW and put it on the dash. If I get pull over, "it's on order and I should get it at any time in the mail, Officer!!"

However, I will try to use the dealer saying it was attached by 3m as some leverage to get them to fix it for me.

My dealer doesn't attach them to camaros or vettes unles you tell them to.

Thats a great dealer then. I only know that this dealership does attach them because when I was speaking to him about the license plate on the car, he said they only don't attach them if the car is ordered and it was specified not to have it installed by the person that ordered it.

haha Thats smart! When I owned my Crossfire I kept the plate under the carpet in the rear hatch. When pulled over I would just tell them the car came from PA and didn't have the plate on the car and I was getting it installed that week.

That hurts to look at. 90 days and you just found out? Good luck with getting the dealership to correct that.

My dealer asked me the same thing.
Kind of funny that he asked while he had a 12 inch drill in his hand. I politely declined. No holes.
I posted a way to use the factory holder a while back and just flip it with 2 zip tires. Works great.

I'm saying a prayer for you right now . .

You caught him just in time!

If it's a Chevy dealership have them give you a hefty discount on an SS front bumper or an aftermarket bumper!

Or at least have them professionally cover the holes....

Bondo and paint time!

Weather in NJ hasn't been kind to us so far this Spring. We have only had a few warm days since I got the car and I been in the office for all of them. I left work a little bit early today to get this thing removed, so oh well. The dealer has been a champ up to now, so I will see if the trend continues.
