Default 2 Questions

I am from Wisconsin, one of those states that require two licence plates. I am wondering what is the nicest looking front plate mount availible? I will not drill into the front nose of the car, like one I saw on ebay. I saw one on the forum on a car that was mounted in the grille. Question 2, Where can I purchase the Z51 chrome emblems for behind the front wheels? Also, while I'm on here, my wife would like to purchase a set of floor mats with the corvette logo imbroirdered on them. We saw them on the forum corvette store link, but when I opened the link, I could'nt find them. I appreciate your input.

I live in Mass and they also require 2 plates....I would just leave it off....IMO it's worth the risk and I would rather pay the ticket then put a plate on...very few cops will pull you over for just the plate....

don't know about the emblems but here's a link for the mats..... http://www.pfyc.com/store/merchant.m...ory_Code=VTINT

Check out Top Flight Reproductions www.topflightrepro.com front license plate mounting bracket. It's the best looking IMHO.

NJ requires it too. Put it on your front seat until you see LEO and then throw it up on the dash.

Default front plate option

You might check out the FAQ or a search here for pictures of the mount from NCM "clean facia" that attaches to the soft air dam behind/below the front bumber. $15.95

Texas requires one too. However, I have been driving Corvettes since 1998 without one and have never had a problem.

The best looking front plate bracket, IMO, is from www.topflightrepro.com.

There are several different sources of Z51 emblems, all different. These are my personal favorites: http://forums.corvetteforum.com/show....php?t=1355763

The best mats with logos are Lloyd's. www.corvettesofhouston.com seems to have the best price.
