After taking a closer look at the intake it appears this bracket will not have any effect at all on air flow to the filter. I cant see any direct path to the air cleaner at all! It looks like the only air comes from the sides. Am I missing something? Anybody make scoops to help airflow get to the filter?

Not a choice where I live! I bought one from these guys, and it looks great. Super high quality. Victory red . Do Corvette's come in any other colour?

topflight,
Im sorry I didnt mean to come across like I did. It actually fell off a couple of weeks ago. and have had a lot of stuff going on.
I was wondering has anyone else had this same issue? are you using a different brand of tape ? installed a vr bout 2 years ago
no problems at all , now on the lmb vette just fell off cleaned it well good temp. and everthing.
I really love the way your brackets look ,
and they are good quality.or I wouldnt have been a repeat customer, and I have probly sent a few more customers your way, locally they are real tough on front plates
thanks Bill

Hi Bill, not a problem. Sometimes if there is wax on the surface the adhesive may not adhere very well unless the surface is cleaned with mineral spirits and then the alcohol wipes. And when installing, after the bracket is attached, push up real hard to insure good adhesive contact. Send us an email at topflightrepro@yahoo.com with a ship to address and we will send you out a replacement.

Got my top flight front mounting license plate bracket last week, installed quickly and easily and looks much better than the bracket that mounts on the nose of the vette. The instructions recommend using "denatured alcohol or mineral spirits" to remove any wax so that the double sided tape on the bracket adheres well. For those of you wondering where to get denatured alcohol or mineral spirits...Most local hardware stores carry both.

To get this look I'd order the bracket and the frame (in body color) right?

Just got my c6 this weekend. The previous owner had the factory plate holder. I have the two screw marks that are fairly small. Is there any way to life the license plate up slightly with your bracket? Thanks!

In Stock!

The Top Flight Reproductions C6 front license plate bracket is the best looking mount available and it's legal in all the two plate states unlike some of the other after market front plate solutions. It follows the contour of the front bumper. Installs easily without lifting the car. Requires no drilling for attachment like some others do. Our bracket is priced considerably lower than other after market solutions and is made in the USA .

All three Top Flight Reproductions front license plate brackets are in stock and ready to ship. Visit our website at www.topflightrepro.com or call 781-279-1279 and ask for Ray.
