remote control / retractable front license plate mount (Everett/Seattle)
Hello gents -
When I picked up my vette last Summer, it came with a remote control / retractable front license plate mount. Pretty cool freebie. A couple of months later, I lowered the car, and the mount, at least where it was installed, reduced ground clearance by a little bit, and the ramp at my work in Seattle was a little problematic. I uninstalled it. It did bottom out a couple of times but it's still in good shape.
I saved all of the hardware it came with, and the wiring you run up to your battery, both of the remote control fobs etc.. it uninstalled in about 5 minutes so it couldn't be too difficult of an install.
It's this same system here:
Would anyone local like to have this thing for say, 40$? I can get some photos if it would help.

Turn 12!
Cool. I would be concerned about it being torn off.

it does reduce ground clearance by about an inch. I'd say this should be no concern to someone at stock ride height, as I go through some pretty gnarly incline/declines at work and it cleared fine.. up until I lowered the car 
I lowered it pretty drastically, my fault, really.
