2020+ front license plate relocation options?

[Supastar]

we all hate front plates but have to run 1, i'm curious what 2020+ owners (type R and Si owners) are doing. since most of the previous ideas involve using the mesh with nuts & bolts to hold the plate.

any ideas would be welcome pls.

btw, do 2020+ R have tow hooks holes to run those tow hooks plate holers?

thanks!

Has anyone found/come up with any other solution for the front plate?

All I've found is the Ansix, but it's quite $$: https://ansixauto.com/no-drill-front-license-plate-holder-honda-civic-type-r-fk8-2017/

I don't have an issue with spending $ where it is beneficial. Where I live we get TONS of snow, so I'm worried it won't hold up. I know the suction isn't what actually holds the plate though.

I have a crochet backing on mine and it covers the edges, I keep it tucked against the windshield on the passenger side. the cloth helps keep it in place since it is a little thick

https://www.shapeways.com/product/PNVMKSUYT/honda-civic-type-r-fk8-license-plate-holder I have this and it's awesome. I actually modified it to raise it up even further to give the intercooler maximum airflow. Easy to remove in a minute for when I don't want a plate on, best of all no holes in the bumper cover!

Not a 2020, but here is the Raceseng front license plate relocator. Can easily swap to their tow hook.

I don’t like front license plates, but this isn’t too bad.

I have the ansix one and have driven with it on the track and in the snow many times. No problem at all.

Wow that shapeways mount has more than doubled what I paid for it 2 years ago ?. IMO it is the cleanest option. I just don't understand offset plates

I agree with this, very clean IMHO. Two bolts and the tag is off! The price is definitely higher than when I bought mine a year ago too. But I'm totally happy with this.

Cheers man, I think this won't work for the 2020 cuz the plate may be right in front of a the honda sensor....

Honda sensing is on the drivers side.

Honda sensing is on the drivers side.

Really? My bad, I thought the little hole on the passenger side was for the sensor. I guess it's for the horn? Or did I confused my sides...

Here you can see the difference between both the drivers and passenger side. The horn behind the opening is on the passenger side. I tried the Honda sensing for a short while on my drive home from the dealership so far it seems to work well.
