No-drill front plate solution for Tremor?

[Nw_adventure]

I live in Portland, just down the street from Craven Speed, but my dealership I am purchasing through is in Utah (only dealer willing to guarantee MSRP at the time). I may end up just taking it to Craven and seeing if they have any ideas to cook up a solution. Maybe a tow hook mount for FLP...

Which Utah dealership ? Just curious -

I didn't drill mine to the bumper, I drilled mine underneath. I used a nut and bolt to secure it and a little Loctite.
One day if it's not required you won't see any holes in the bumper.
The reflection on the plate cover is my garage storage rack.

I did the same thing with the stock plate mounting bracket, but had used 3 bolts (from Lowes) evenly spaced to attach it instead (overkill?).....it worked perfectly.

Where did you get the plate cover? Did it come with the L bracket?

The "Tremor" plate I got from Etsy. The clear cover from Autozone. the main mounting bracket is what is supplied by Ford for states requiring a front plate. Hope that helps.

Thanks Mayoman. I didn’t notice until after sending that you had already answered the question for someone else.
If Ford is supplying the L brackets, why is everyone disregarding them and looking for 3rd party solutions? I’ve seen several threads here where owners don’t know what to do and videos on YouTube where dealers have drilled 4 screws into the body and bumper at delivery. I don’t understand why there is so much confusion. It seems like what you did would be the obvious logical choice

Hi everyone, My XLT Tremor is currently in transit to the dealership. I live in a state where FLP is required, and I don't want to drill into the bumper.

I like the Craven Speed mount, but due to the modified bumper of the Tremor, I don't know if that one would work. Do any current Tremor owners have a solution to this?

I made my own.
