    No plate would be better, but I like that better than the stock position.

    Also, they need to work on the fascia to hood gap, way too big.

    License plate in the same place it's always been, I'm VA plates required by law. Hood/front bumper assembly is actually tighter than before. Difference is new chin spoiler as the other was broken. I went with another just for shits and giggles, I'll be buying a new Bohnman spoiler for when my rapid cycling preferences kick in. But for now I have the 6liter spoiler. However I didn't attach it like shown on the website which I personally did not like. Instead I used Bohnman's mounting directions with 3 spacers to give the spoiler a point. It is attached directly to the bottom of the front fascia on either side until it comes to the lower rubber insert where 3 spacers were used to separate it. Bohnman's spacer install makes a flat chin spoiler legit. Both spoilers however are excellent. Real difference is in how far spoilers come out and the edging. 6liter's needs a finished edge since it protrudes much more than Bohnman's. I really don't prefer one over the other. Both add great accents to the car.

    Yeah, it's a sweet piece especially how Bohnman's is setup, that's why I used spacers for this one.
