Default 2004 New Owner

Hi, My name is Robin and I just bought a 2004 Crossfire. I love the car and I so enjoy driving it. I look forward to reading posts about the car and getting to hear all about your cars!

I could use some help, I bought the car and it's doesn't have a front license bracket. I got one but wondered if there were markings on the bump to line up so the bracket is installed straight. Or is there some kind of tip or suggestion someone can help me with?

would love to hear from you if you can help me: robinhardy12@gmail.com thanks and be safe on the road!

Welcome Robin
Most of us who don't have a plate bracket already mounted prefer not to mount it.
It requires you to drill holes in your front bumper
I don't think there is any special way to install it though if you choose to.


Enjoy the car and the miles ahead

Gary

PS...love your screen name

Welcome to the Forum, you will love the car. There are at least two Li. Brackets.I finally got the better one. The bumper has a high spot in the center to center up the bracket. I used a good level, but also found the bumper to have a v shape that fits the bracket. If you just take the bracket and slide it up and down and across it will be clear where it should be mounted.
A level never hurts though and just get it centered.

check out No Hole License Plate Bracket

looks like medium length brackets, about $56 shipped ......
( front plates are just plain stupid, Alabama has never required them )
