I got my order promptly and installed it and was surprised how well I liked the look of it on the car.....I was fanatical about messing with the front end of my Grand Sport but don't mind having the plate on there. Good stuff, Thanks...........

I was just about ready to pull the trigger on a bracket for my 427 until I read this post. I am not so sure buying something that has to be modified to keep it from destroying the paint is such a great idea. Is this typical for the TFR brackets for the 427? I don't even want a front plate and may take my chances on a ticket first.....

How is it now that you have had it a while?

Has the issue that "new hamster" had on his 427 been resolved?

I have this on my 427 and there were no issues mounting it what so ever, it's been on the car for two years

Default removable bracket for base C6

On the removable bracket for the base C6, does the bottom edge of the bracket contact the bumper below the grill, or is there a small gap between the bracket & the bumper?

I just wanted to let you know that we are a very satisfied customer. We used your front plate kit on our '08 coupe and were so satisfied that I installed it on our 427 convertible the day I brought it home from the dealer. It is the only front license plate mount that actually looks like it was designed to compliment the front of a C6 Corvette.

Thanks for a great product.

We install a foam strip on the back side of the bracket and there is typically and 1/8 of an inch gap between the bumper and the foam strip

Ordered the bracket and 2 black frames today. Cannot wait for them to get here. Did not know what I was going to do about front plate till I found this. It look great in the pictures.

I, along with several others, have had problems with the adhesive coming loose. See https://www.corvetteforum.com/forums...e-bracket.html

Looks great, but I have this problem that needs correction.

I am considering buying two of these after a recent incident with the local LEO. My in-laws would need a supersonic blue, and I would need a carbon flash metallic. Does anyone have pictures installed on these colors?

I would want the removable system for my C6 Grand Sport. However, I'm not clear as to what it would look like without the plate attached? Do I still have the bracket showing or what hardware is transparent?
Thanks!

You would remove the license plate bracket via 2 wing nuts, the only thing that stay attached to the car is a flat plate and two threaded studs, which would not be visible if you were standing in front of the car
