Front tag options besides drilling holes in front bumper(PICS PLEASE)!
Trying to get a idea on where to put a front tag on the evo9.
I cant stand the thought of the dealer/me drilling holes in the front bumper ala the black plastic peace that some come with.
So im looking for pics / ideas you have for me/others that are required to run a front plater

Go to homedepot and buy a L shape bracket with 2 screws and nuts.
That way, you can drill the L bracket within the crevice area of the mouth grill. and place it towards the driver side..

I'm not sure if the 9 bracket mounts the same as the 8 but this is what I did.
The 8 front bracket has 3 mounting locations. 2 of the locations are open and just require using the provided bolts. The last requires you to drill a ~1/2in hold to mount the bottom support. I also did not want to drill the hole so I used the available open 2 locations and I just used doubled sided tape for the 3rd hole which you are supposed to drill. Works like a charm.
