How is your front plate attached?

2394 Views 25 Replies 18 Participants Last post by  marc-o-lishuz
So I took off my front plate only to find that they had used a screw to hold on the top part of the housing. This means I have a hole in my bumper :SHOCKED: I am going to Honda today to get his resolved. What I want to know is how is the plate housing attached for all of you that do not have a screw going through your bumper? Is it only attached using the 2 bottom screws or is there adhesive behind the housing?

Thanks

I told them a couple days before they got my car in to NOT drill any holes for the front plate, now I just have it attached through the 2 brackett holes in the grille and bent the plate to fit within the width of the grille
BUMP.. I'm bringing my FG2 to the dealership this friday and hopefully I'll get the front bumper replaced. :xyxnervou Then i'm doing the plate flip, but idk if I'll do it to the side, or centered.....

Good luck getting it replaced...I went to the dealer, called Honda, wrote Honda and spoke to a few higher ups. Honda can't do anything because they have no control over dealer issues....The best I got was they would fix it for me but after they melted my headlight, scratched my paint and drove it for 16 miles there was no way in hell my car was going back to them....YONKERS HONDA FTMFL
zap strap it into the grill..or fold it into the grill
NO hole in mine either, and I flipped the place holder too. I love it much better this way.
Let's let this thread die, ya? The OP just crashed his car yesterday, and I'm sure where you put your front plate is the least of his worries.
