Does anyone have a photo of a dealer-installed front license plate mount for a chrome bumper car? I have the mounting holes but have no idea what the bracket looks like and it is required in California.
I don't have a pic of good bracket mounted handy - hopefully someone else will, but if you look at RFoulds' pic of the inside/backside of his rear bumper you can see the 2 metal screw clips inserted thru those 2 rectangular mounting holes.
Same thing is used for the F bumper, although sometimes now they're selling with plastic/nylon clips which won't rust nor scratch the chrome or painted finish on the bumpers.
I'm pretty sure that Porsche dealers, Pelican, GPR, CAMP914, TC'sGarage, Sierra Madre Collection, AutoAtlanta, Performance Products/Automotion/Ekler's, etc. all still sell the F & R licence plate mounts & mount kits &/or full kits of both parts for F & R if you want a new one. IIRC it's the same bracket & hardware as used on all P-cars from that period, so they'd keep them in stock at Porsche.
If you're a PCA member, then there are usually 20% discounts to members on parts from dealers.
Here are my old license plate brackets F & R dismounted FYI - the 2 screw holes at the ends of the horizontal piece go into the threaded inserts in the bumper's mounting holes (IIRC the offset one went on the front).

PS - same ones used on both chrome & painted bumpers
