Default Painted front plate bracket

I had my dealer paint the front plate mounting bracket to match the car (machine silver). He did it n/c (took the body shop guy maybe 5 minutes, painted it off the car). I have not mounted it yet (waiting until I get stopped the first time) but it sure looks a lot better than the OEM black.

How many other's have also done this? Does it help?

Default Front License Plate Frame

I also did this and the result is really nice. For an added touch add a slightly tinted plexiglass cover. Several diff. ones out there. It will slide in with the license plate.
