Where to buy license plate brackets that require no drilling?

Hi guys,

Where do you find license plate brackets for the 599 GTO? Ferrari gave me a set, but you need to drill into the bottom of the bumper to mount it, which is a big no go for me.

I found this place, but I don't think these brackets are made for any high speed use.

599 GTO

Any suggestions will be appreciated!

I have seen brackets that screw into the threaded tow hook site. I am not sure where the tow hook is on the front of the 599.

Is a sticker allowed instead wherever you live?

Thanks Harvey. I found this site that does the tow hook bracket, but I'm not sure if I can get used to asymmetrical look.

Nope. It's the full and proper size or nothing. So I can't even make a smaller plate to zip tie to the grill.

I made contact with the guy from Plate Clip and he says he has used the bracket up to 120mph without issue. I think I might pursue this option

Mike, this might sound crazy but you can also try having a magnet installed on the inside of the bumper and also another magnet on the plate itself. If the magnets are strong enough, the plate will stay and be removable whenever you want. You can also use 3M double sided tape. It's strong enough to hold at high speeds.

Mike such a tragedy to have to do anything to the front of that GTO . Are all the other cars front plated?
