Default Vibrating license plate

I had my back seat down while driving the other day, and was annoyed to find I had a vibrating noise coming from the rear of the car. Upon further inspection, I found it is my license plate!! With only two screws holding the plate on, the bottom seems to have a tendency to vibrate, especially when I am accelerating. Anyone else experience this? Any thoughts on how to fix this?

take off the place, get some of that window insulation foam from home depot. it's already got tape on it so stick a strip of it along the bottom and perhaps some on the sides. i had to do this because my sub would make the plate rattle. no problems ever since.
