If you can't get it at a Lexus dealership try a junk yard.

i got one at autozone. did a "custom" JDM-style on the driver side plate. i mounted it to the bottom of the bumper not to drill holes in the front.

Hi
Do you have pic's?
I found 2 holes under the bumper - very flimsy, w/ no way to bolt on.
How did you convert + mount the bracket?
Thanks.

Won't that leave scratches where the plate slides around during driving cause wind ??
I would think Velcro would do just as good a job plus you can just pull it off for photos !!

Zip ties can be cut...
Where to put the Velcro? There isn't enough flat surface except for the bumper itself???
(I've had license plate ripped off the back. E-Z job since the fiberglass holes are paper-weak)

lotta ppl i knew back in the day used to steal plates whenever they stole cars, put the newly stolen plates on the other car, usually gave em more time for whatever they were doing before they ditched em. gotta love bored teens lol
EDIT: forgot to add that the donor car was the same make as the stolen n _usually_ the same year(generation) n color. but, zip ties or not, they want a plate, they'll get it
