Nismo front License bracket?

Shawberger · 06-20-2013, 04:49 PM

Hello All, I am looking to get a front license plate bracket for my Z (Only because I live in Cali and the fuzz has already pulled me over TWICE! in 2 months)

Looking online I see the tow hook option (I don’t want to drill holes in my bumper) but I see it is only for the base model and not the Nismo...

Anybody seen anything out there for the Nismo model?

any help would be much appreciated

Thanks in advance my Z friends

I purchased a Nismo about a month ago and the front license plate mount was the first thing I put on (to avoid cops). I wanted to offset the plate using the two bar as a mount. I researched and found that the Stillen front plate mount was too short (by about 3 inches) due to the Nismo bumper. I finally settled on getting the Moweraxle design. I've had no issues at all, it was a quick and simple install, and no holes in the actual bumper. In total it was about $100 shipped.

Order one from MowerAxle. They have Nismo and standard versions. The quality and looks are awesome. Plus the mounting location can be moved around to suit your taste. They're machined stainless steel mounting on the tow hook mount. Fast service too. See my attached pix and the link

Happy Friday!

I got my mount from Mower Deck Axle Co., LLC Extremely well made, and extremely easy to install. Shipping is extremely fast. I ordered on Friday and it was here first thing Monday morning, and packaged very well with all hardware and clear instructions. Very impressed and the customer service is top notch. I believe it's just Larry who runs this company.

on the stillen bracket i modified, ive moved the plate location as high as i could so im not blocking so much of the limited air opening we have. just food for thought.

There are actually counter sunk holes top and bottom all across on this one, that I believe adds more flexibility than rhe one from Stillen.

I just got mine yesterday. Larry ships right away and all the pieces are solid quality. I like the fact that these come with multiple mounting locations and it looks great! It's nice to see a mounting option for the nismo
