Looks very good. How sturdy does the mount seem? I was looking at it and would like to devise a bracket that actually clamps onto the grill - that way you don't get any holes in the bumper at all.
So with the Skene bracket, it's easy to change the mounting height of the plate?
Yes, the part of the bracket that attaches to the license plate is slotted and allows the part that is secured to the bumper to slide up and down for adjustment before you tighten the screws:
This morning, we took it for a ride out to the San Diego Zoo Safari Park (used to be called the San Diego Wild Animal Park) which was about 50 miles round trip. Afterwards I still couldn't get the front license plate to budge even a little jiggle, so as I said it seems pretty sturdy and secure; but as Andy pointed out it is only held to the plastic bumper by small screws, with some help from a couple of pieces of 2-sided tape.
By the way, while we were at the Safari Park, we sighted another Leaf parked in the same row as us (row 4), cayenne red with HOV stickers.
