Default XB front license plate placement

I just got a polar white 06 scion XB and i'm wondering where you guys have placed your front license plates. The front end is amazing on this car and i don't wanna mess it up with a stupid plate.

Mine was custom Fabricated by me, but it vibrated so much in the wind it cracked the plate and scratched the bumper.


sorry about the size.

I'm not sure where eat street is, but i have been in the twin cities area the last couple of days. I picked up the car on wed. I live in St Cloud now but will be moving to the maple grove area in a couple months.

Man...those guys down at Walser must be busy...maybe it's just me but it seems like everytime someone posts here that they bought a new Scion it was from Walser. That's where I got mine too...

I'm also trying to figure out where to put my front plate. Don't want to drill holes in the bumper and the grill-hanging one would cover up part of what makes the tC RS2 unique! I still have it in the front window, but I got pulled over and given a warning last week...I'm sure it's just a matter of time before I get a real ticket!

BTW, congrats on being a new Scion owner!
