Woohoo! I'm gonna get one for my Rieger kit. I cant stand the front plate but I need it in NYC. So in order to look nice and keep myself within legal limits, I bought the motorized retractable license plate bracket. And after searching for this piece of plastic and motor that costs at most $30 to make, I managed to find one for a decent deal. And guess where I found it??? Summit Racing! LOL
I used source code 2RETYV and gave me 10% off. Total came out to $129.30 shipped. I accidentally used my paypal balance
I wanna see if I can rack up to 100,000 points by the end of this year!!! Oh well.
Comes with a key fob to remotely hide or reveal the license plate.

I've been wanting to get that, but even though its in, you still see a little bit of it. You think I can figure out a way to hide it into the mesh grill? Might be a way right? like line it up right below the kidney grills or something and have it slide out from there. that would be hot.

i dont get it-if you have to have a visible front plate-then how will making something to hide the plate under the car make sense-why dont you just take it off with your hands permanently instead-so when would you hit the button-if pulled over-
Why dont you just carry the plate in your car and when pulled over say your front bracket broke and your in process of getting one
