Hello,
I didn't see LeMans Blue as an option for your plate frame. Do you have plain wrapper frames that can be painted?

I nearly lost the plate with the expensive painted plate holder and I just can't afford to buy another matching plate holder at this price point. Scotch Extreme Mounting tape on Amazon only gets 4 stars not 5 so I don't know if this is good enough.
Anyone? Please PM me with info.
Try gorilla double sided tape, its very good and you can get it from Walmart.

Hmmm, don't like the sound of that mess. Why does one need to spend $5 for tape if they've already paid $80 for the high quality frame? Yes, sarcasm, sorry. Very helpful post....

Just moved to Ohio, which means a front plate after enjoying 12 years without one. Ordered the removable bracket and the LeMans Blue frame. Hopefully I can run with it removed most of the time.......

I just installed your removable bracket on my GS with the colored frame and it looks great. However, even though I followed your install instructions, the base plate ended up about 1/4" too deep. No big problem for me because I have a drill press, and two new holes in the bracket solved the problem. I'm not the only one to have had this issue. If the base plate was wider so that it touched the grill at the back and if there were two slots instead of holes in the bracket, then installation would be easier. You'd only need to worry about centering the base plate side to side, and the slots in the bracket would allow you to move the license plate in and out to get as close to the bumper as you wanted. Just my .02 worth.

HI, I noticed that you don't have any products in Precision Red (27U), or even its replacement Cobalt Red.
I realize there may be a limited number of Vette's produced with that color.
I would purchase the front plate in that color.

Thanks,
Peter

Good morning,
Do you have a supplier in Canada for the C6 license plate bracket.
I'm not fond of paying $45.00 USD for shipping to Canada on a $99.00 item.
I could get it shipped to Ogdensburg, but if you have a supplier up here, that would be preferred.

Cheers,
Peter

Peter/Ray,

I just received the permanent base and matching frame and my wife doesn't want me to put them on unless I get stopped.

Can I send back the permanent bracket and upgrade to a removable bracket?

I'll send you my transaction ID via PM.

Thanks,

Dave

Installed the removable bracket without the frame. Looks great and I like the fact that I have options! Great product...
