You should take the plate off and drill out the holes on the aero plate.
There are little dimples where they should be.
Then you could get rid of the zap straps..
Nice looking wheels and car.

Thanks! I was thinking about doing that or also going plate less which would definitely look better! I just don't wanna be harassed all the time especially since I also got 50% on the side windows...Its not too dark so, so far so good.

At first, I was about to buy the painted ones from corvettemods but after a suggestion from my tint installer, I decided that getting it wrapped was the easiest and cheaper way to do it. Definitely like how it turned out. Everybody that has seen my car don't even know it was a wrap let alone that I had PPF on the car.

Thanks again guys I appreciate the comments. Need some opinions from you guys in terms of lowering. Based on what you have seen on the pics, do you think I should lower the car on stock bolts or leave it as is?

I think he ticket in B.C. is about $180 for no front plate, and then they look at your tint. It will look ok if you screw it on and bend a frame to fit like you have on the rear.
Car would look good lowered. There are a # of threads on here on how to do it.

Ya I would rather just do that than get hassled...
My debate with the lowering is the rubbing issue since my wheels stick out because of the offset. I mean a 1 inch drop isn't too bad but what if I hit dips and tight curves. Also there is the splitter hitting things issue. Decisions decisions hmm...
