I had this installed this morning, i felt it was the best looking license plate option on the front bumper/grill.

Comes with an extra remote. Im having trouble gettin the video from my iphone to the comp.

It looks good..but looks better on audi's and bmw's I've seen it done on.

Once i get the video ill have it up!

try opening the video and clicking share then send it to your email

cant wait to see.

Heres the link to the video

I spent more than I hoped to on this..its a little more visible than I would like, but thats due to that bottom lip of the grill.

That last second lag is due to me not holding down the button.

Let me know what you guys think.

sweet. thanks for posting this up! I was debating whether to get this for my car or not... that front plate just ruins the grill on these cars. :/

Looks great! doesn't sit as low as I thought. I'll still have to wait until I decide on a lip or not.

How was the install?

Nice! I bought a similar one (actually 3) from Swift Motorsports-
Swift Motorsports

Unfortunately, I can not use it on the Mugen front end. There is no support underneath

I also didn't go with the motorized version, opting for the manual- basically just pushing down and back.

I also realized that it would have a bit of a lean backwards. Seeing as I just received my license plates this week, I guess I'll have the front one sitting in the windshield until I can find one that I can use.... Rice, Rice Baby

I had my shop do it, although most of you could do this..im just not a car guy and a huge newb lol.

Only took a half hour at most.

I believe the swift motorsports and altec are the same model basically..this is a neat option, just kinda pricey. God damn front license plate lawns.

I hear ya! I can't stand having one. It takes away from the lines of the car. The Euro plates at least have character...Ours just plain ole' suck!

Btw Klynch, if you don't mind me asking, how much was the motorized version? Mine were $60 shipped and I think Swift had the motorized one on sale for $150 I believe.
