I don't drive with the free advertising plastic dealer holders....remember the day when they'd place those metal-looking plastic dealer logos on the back?
Have you tried to remove the license plate bracket? I wouldn't be surprised if there were two 1 inch holes so that the plate would sit flush with the bracket.

On a lease? Don't care.

I would love to lobby the Ontario government to drop the front plate requirement entirely but in this nanny state THAT ain't gonna happen! Won't someone think of the children!!

Removed mine few days ago and yes, there are already 2 white swirls on my front bumper. I'm not too worried about it tho since those are covered by the plate holder all the time.

I did have the same (or even bigger) gap that you had, and so I took it off, bent it a little more so its more streamlined with the front bumper's curve, used some sticky tag on both upper corners of the plate holder so it'll help stick to the bumper, and also changed the J-clip + screws so it wouldnt screw into the bumper anymore.
