JDM bumper, how did you mount your plate? - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

I just received my JDM kouki rear bumper, and I was wondering how most of you guys mounted your license plate. The USDM one has a tab for it to mount too, but the JDM one doesn't.

Industrial Strength double-sided tape...let it sit on the bottom of the bumper edge for more support..

I'm guessing clean the plate and bumper nice and good, then stick er' on. Any problems with it? Can I get the double sided tape at any local car parts store?

Advance carries mounting tabs for use with M8 or M10 bolts. You will have to redrill the tags since JDM holes are wider apart.

I don't really want to drill into my new plates.

Then you have to do something else.

3M oem approved double sided moulding tape will hold through a nuclear war. It owns everything.
