This is how I mounted my front plate on my 14 Nismo grill without punching holes in the bumper. Not the best idea, but not the worst either, and it's cheap, effective, and sturdy, and will prevent you from getting an expensive ticket for no front plate. The plate bracket does not touch the grill because of the foam pipe insulation. White zip-ties used to show contrast in the photos. Easily removed and re-attached later if you enter your car in a car show and want the plate and bracket removed before your car is judged. Saw this idea on U-Tube where a guy mounted a front plate on his VW grill using zip-ties. Hope this helps.
