What you use for front license plate?

[Kevinfish]

Did you guys use the Tesla default plate holder and if so, how are they? Does it drill into the front of the car?

I have been checking on Amazon.ca but haven't seen anything good.

I'm using the Tesla default plate holder. It's actually an adhesive front plate bracket. I watched them install it - doesn't seem like it's going anywhere.

Using the Tesla plate holder. If the bill passes for Ontario vehicles no longer needing front plates it should be easy to yank off considering it’s just glue

After seeing my car without it (had it in for PPF) I felt so bad putting it back on. Hope the bill passes

The factory front plate holder is taped on with double sided tape. I have it sitting in my garage and used Torklift’s The Law plate holder. Kinda expensive but no holes nor any tape on the PPF.

They already announced the new Ontario plate last month. They didn’t address Ontario front plates in that decision. It’s deferred for now I believe.
That said I just got the Ottosteer mount in the mail. I had the factory plate and it was installed after PPF and ceramic. It won’t stay on due to the ceramic. At least that says something about the ceramic. I got the magnetic Ottosteer and may just be selective about when I use it.

I don't know man...100 bucks for a license plate holder seems pretty steep to me...

I get but but it’s inline with some and a lot cheaper than others. This one is really well thought out, very solid, high quality stainless fasteners, super easy to remove and replace and doesn’t block any airflow into the lower intake.

Yeah seems like accessories for model 3 are more expensive than other car accessories in general.

How long was the shipping for the ottosteer?

Since I reside in Toronto, I'm going to wait until Ford announces his decision if he's going to remove the front plate requirement or not. It's currently in discussion and the new plates with slogans have already been announced. Hopefully we'll hear of the final decision soon. If overturned, I think I'll go with the Bandit mount. It's cheaper than the average mount and it's made pretty well.

Magnetic attachment (really strong):

With security screws:

Toggle bolts from Home Depot - drill into the Tesla holder, hold fastener on inside of grill with pliers and screw in, line borders with weatherstripping for a more snug fit and no damage due to vibration/jostling. No holes, uses same grill that commercial holders use, takes 10 mins and costed me about $7 I think?

Black caps installed:

Did the black caps come with it? I got mine a month or so ago and didn't receive caps, must be a product improvement.

5 caps were included. Hex on the back to fit the Allen head. I might put a drop of silicone on the hex to keep them in place. One popped off removing the plate a few times. Still removable that way if ever necessary.

I used "The Law" front license plate bracket (no drill). A bit on the pricey side but looks awesome.
