Front Plate.
Bought Brand New car from Flroida(Chevy). They don't have front plates,Dealer is asking to do it for a 100 dollars. Shouldn't GM cover that for free?

$100.00 to drill 4 holes in your front bumper cover and slap on the ugly bracket?

Who really wants an ugly plate on the front in the first place. Just pay the fine.

Leave it off and used the $100 to pay the fine if you ever get pulled over.

It's only 4 pop rivets. I have the bracket not sure what it would cost to ship from Alberta? But you can have mine. Alberta has no front plate. Email me vipercolin@hotmail.com if you want it.

Oh LOL - Cool - Welcome to the neighbourhood! In that case I'll only charge you $50 Seriously tho, if you really want to put it on, bracket, drill, 4 rivets. Done

It didn't come with a front plate. No car leaves Oshawa with the front plate bracket installed. It was your idiot dealer who put it on.

PLATE
Word! I wish I would of did that when I bought my camaro. I went back to the dealership 3 days later and had them drill my ugly front license plate bracket. Well almost a year later I made them take it off and I installed the $150 motorized one that slides right under your front bumper. I love playing with the remote ha! I was left with 4 bullet holes i guess I didn't look at the wounds my dealer installed some plastic rivets and spraypainted them black! I'm sure happy I didn't end up wasting a lot of money and buying bumper plugs. I enjoy taking my car back to the dealer they are always full of more ideas then me
