So I made it 4 months of owning my SS before the law figured out I wasn't running a front plate

I bought it from a difference Province that doesn't require a front plate, so it doesn't have any holes drilled (just the 2 dimples) I figured I would get caught, but I didn't want to drill holes until I absolutely had to.

Anyways, I have the front bracket part # 22714704, which is for the regular HHRs, but it doesn't line up at all for the SS bumper.

Anyone know what the SS front bracket part # is so I can order the correct one? Or is it this one and I need the grind the crap out of it??

I have 10 days to fix

 

The SS should be a 15253233.

 

Just courious, which province is it that you don't need a front plate? The SS looks so much better without the front plate.

 

Thanks for the number!

I eventually found it on a site but they hid the first 2 digits, so couple tries in I found it

Silly because it was my uncle that works for GM that ordered me the bracket, and its the wrong one

And apparently Alberta doesn't need a front plate...

 

Use rivits to mount it.

 

Had to do the same thing. I hated drilling through that nice pretty front fascia but I would much rather drive a car that is legal. The kit comes with everything u need, including the rivets.

 

You could make a bracket for under the bottom of the bumper. Surprisingly it doesn't affect the IAT

 

I have a retractable lic plate on my 2008 Charger SRT, and am thinking of installing same on my HHR SS. I run w the plate up, but retrZct it under for car shows. They make one that is powered, and one manual.

 

I have the electric one on the SS and it works very well, You do have to watch curbs though.

 

zap straps.... tell them you couldn't get the parts in time.

Last time I was give 10 days to fix something they didn't even bother to check it when I brought it in...
