If you are reading this, thank you for your time and your help.

I need to attach a front plate or I will get fined. My car has no bracket or screws, because it was originally sold in a state with no front plate requirement. Brackets are not sold for this model, period.

Can I just drill into the bumper and create my own mount? How would I do this?

I have already committed to creating a makeshift mount myself, so no need to instruct me on how to get hold of the elusive 2008 brackets.

Thank you!
