If you are replacing a front plate, then you can just re-use your existing screws. If not, then you will need to purchase some hardware and attach the plate and frame to the vehicle using one of the methods described below.

If you have holes in your bumper, any of the screw kits are they way to go. If you don't have holes in your bumper, you will either have to drill them and get the screw kit or just go with one of the 3M Dual Lock kits.

Import screw kits use metric size screws and are meant for foreign cars such as Audi, BMW, Mercedes and VW. Domestic screw kits use standard size screws and are meant for US cars such as Chevy, Ford and Dodge.

The Dual Lock kits are adhesive on one side and velcro on the other. You mount one side to your bumper, one side to the frame and mate the two together. If you remove the 3M kit in the future, it will not harm your bumper or paint. We give you five mating pairs--which is more than enough to secure the plate and frame to the bumper. If you have a black bumper, get the black 3M kit. Otherwise, get the clear kit. And while the kits will hold up to driving at high speeds, they don't hold up well to thieves or car washes.

All our frames are designed to be universal and fit on any vehicle, even with bumpers with holes for US license plates. The logo frames are the same frame as the universal frame, but with a logo printed on it. You might want to visit our videos page where we show you how to mount your plate & frame.

All of the frames will work on a bumper with a small amount of curve. The standard black frame works best for bumpers with more curvature. We recommend putting the aluminum plate inside the frame and bending it GENTLY until the plate and frame have a curve in them that match your bumper. Then remove the plate from the frame, mount the frame to the vehicle, and then put the plate back in.

Some notes about particular frames: The Chrome frame is made of plastic with a chrome finish.

Unless you specify otherwise, 1 order is 1 plate. You can always specify the quantity on checkout, but the default is one plate per order. Most often this question is asked when shipping to a foreign country. Please note, as mentioned in an earlier FAQ, our plates are NOT for legal use.

One full space is the perfect gap to fit registration seals. We offer a half space for those of you trying to fit extra characters on the plate but the seals won't fit. Two spaces looks a little odd as it leaves a big gap between the characters.
