Front Liscense Plate?

I was wondering if anybody knew where to get the OE front liscense plate bracket? I bought the car used and it came with holes in the front bumper, but no bracket. My guess a previous owner took it off, because they had the car to be driven only on the nicest of days, it wasnt a DD.

I checked the RPO's and the car came with the VK3 package, so I am guessing the holes there are for the origional bracket. Thanks!

If you put a bracket on there it will ruin your bumper cover. Ask me how I know. I would just put the plate in the window. Thats what people do around here and the cops dont harass them.

Re: Front Liscense Plate?

what he's trying to say is the bumper cover is already ruined. Theres holes in there from the previous owner.

There is a bracket on one of the cars I have but I don't know if it is OE. It looks pretty crappy to me but I can take pics latter and if you want it 5 bucks plus shipping.

Re: Front Liscense Plate?

local chevy dealer about 20 bucks. i had to buy one for my car. stupid NY state requires a front plate, my car came from north carolina where no front plate is required. i actually drove the car most of last summer with no front plate until i got a $120 ticket, ouch. i hate the way it looks, but didnt have much of a choice considering the **** state i live in.
