I've posted this in quite a few threads, so if you've seen my retractable license plate one too many times, I appologize

does your radiator still get enough air to cool down if your block that much so closely?

The metal bracket underneath is screwed onto the CF lip. It comes with a bunch of different screws and a long metal hanger if you wanted to mount it differently.

I got it from ebay, but you can buy it from these places also:

www.NinoSport.com

www.AltecProducts.com

haha, I like it because well I'll just let the website explain:

"The Show-n-Go license plate transport is an innovative new product that is valued by enthusiasts who take pride in the fundamental clean lines of the automobile."
