License plate bracket...

Ever since I drove home from the dealership I've been pissed off at the way my license plate was mounted. In Nov I hit a Fox, har har I know it's my name, and the damn thing bent in. So now it looks all fubar.

So I came up with this idea: "find a license plate bracket for my license plate." So what I want would hold the plate out about six inches off of the bumber and could allow the plate to be mounted anywhere on the bumper... but thing is I haven't been able to find one. So I came up with my own clever design.

It's been in my head for the past week and this morning I got bored... it's now 4:30am and I had a vision. Well here it is... someone make it for me! MS paint baby... who needs all that fancy pancy art stuff anyway???

By the way that's how I look in real life... don't make fun... I'm teh hotness.

This is no joke thread. It's serious... I'd really like someone to make one...

What do you guys think? Maybe it could be made out metal for strength and I don't know overlaid in carbon fiber for you carbon fiber ****** out there.

The problem with a bracket like that is that you have to mount in on the bumper. I want something that sit's off the bumper and fits behind the lower bumper grill. I also want to mount the bracket off on the drivers side. Looks better there.

Hell yeah, I don't think the design is up to snuff quite yet so I need someone with some engineering skills to take a look at it. I mean, it's a MS paint design. Plus you work on the base right? You could get into trouble using military equipment to make something for me... I wouldn't want you to get in trouble man.

PS- I can't believe that no one has commented on my self portrait... that's some good work right there if I do say so myself.

I totally agree. I think I'm going to be moving my plate to the side soon... I hate the way it sits in the middle.
