Default Front plate relocate = rice?
anyone got pics of an XD with relocated front license plate? dunno if that would throw off my look and be rice-ish.

what kits are available out there? and was installation straight forward?

i'm in CA so can't delete the thing.

no pics but i dont think it would look like rice. that is unless you already have holes in your front bumper, then it might seem odd lol. i know of this kit that taps into the front tow hook mount. kinda pricey for me and mine was already drilled so meh.

I bolted mines on the right side of the lower grill cause I don't have any intentions of drilling the wholes on the front bumper.

I had this one until I forgot to pull it back out after a show. It was a little loose and I didn't tighten it back up, came off as I hit freeway speeds, d'oh. Its called the altec show and go, also comes motorized. http://www.altecproducts.com/

It was around $50 for the manual one. Easy to install, but I would get different screws and lock washers rather than what they send along.
