Default Need two things please

About three days ago on one of the threads about the front license plates for those of us who are forced to have two , there was a link to a site that made a border to go around the plate on a C5. It made the plate look much better. I can not find it for the life of me. It was buried in the original post somewhere. If someone knows where it was, or someone that sells them I would be greatful if you could post it here.
One other thing, if someone has a picture of the underside of a C5 (hopefully not laying upside down in a ditch) I would like to see one.

Is this what you're looking for for the plate?

You can get a black plastic surround at your GM dealer for about $16.00 and paint it yourself with a can of DupliColor ($5.00)

The VetteShop is one place to get the surround. I have one from another vendor and it does make a nice difference in the looks of the car if you run a front plate.
