    Anyone have a suggestion for front and rear license plate holders. Just put on my new tags and the fasteners don't seem to hold very well into the plastic on the bumpers. The almost seem striped. Also the bottom of the front license plate does not secure to anything and keeps getting pushed back into the lower grill opening. Thanks

    If it feels like it's stripped, I would nut and bolt it on.

    I've been wondering the same as the OP and you've provided the perfect solution as I bought some wall anchors this past weekend for an unrelated project.

    I bought a plain Jane flat plastic one at Auto Zone and zip tied real snug to lower grill opening. Works for front

    Instead of 'wall anchors', you can get license plate anchors at any parts house around here. Same concept, just a bit more heavy duty. Same style as we used to press into the factory cut ovals in metal bumpers that had a indentation for a plate to sit in.
