Go to the link above. If that doesn't work go to ebaymotors.com and look up "Evo 8 9 Lancer Evo X Galant JDM Plate Relocator License"

I paid $18 shipped. It wasn't hard to install either. If you want I can send you pictures of mine through email. I just put mine on this weekend. The dealer is GmotoGarage. It took three days to get to my house and took 20 to 25minutes to install. Hope this helps

The law states that the front plate has to be properly secured to the bumper. Even if you have the front plate zip tied the cop can still be a ***** and give you a fix it ticket. Happened to a friend of mine. Luckily for me I have only ever been pulled over once for no front plate. Why not look into the beatrush license plate bracket.

Nothing wrong with zip tying the front plate........




It's very subtle and you can't see the zip ties if you do it right.

I did not want to drill holes in my bumper.
