Show n go? Is that the one that mounts under the car and flips up/down at the push of a button? I thought about ordering something like that because I hate our mandatory front plate requirement until I googled reviews. 98% were negative. Poor design, bad wiring, and on n on. If this is what you're looking into Google up some reviews. I now have a front plate.

Sounds like fun!

I have one of those kits that mount the plate in the tow hook socket; PM me if you're interested...

The dealer ordered the cat back,Gen 3. I ordered the HFC,s direct from Stillen. I dealt with Kenny and Mark at Stillen, both were very helpful.

Thanks, also trying to avoid holes in the bumper.

I got a ticket for no front plate after about a year. I ended up using zip ties to fit it into the sport bumper without drilling holes. The plate is angled upward, but I think it looks as good as it can without throwing money at an unreliable show & go. It's fully visible, but seems slightly hidden this way too.

I avoided holes in my bumper with the stillen relocation bracket that connects through the tow hook. Had to add a few spacers to ensure the plate doesn't touch the bumper but otherwise it is holding up ok.

Hi Sixtus,

Congratulations on your car! Do you mind me asking how much you paid for it out-of-the-door and which packages did you get (Premium, Tech etc.)?

Congrats man, you're not wasting any time to start modding. My show n go plate has survived two big winters here in CT. I think you'll be fine

Thanks for all the tips. Would love to see a close up pic of the Stillen relocater on a car.

That looks a lot better than bolted to the bumper. Can you unattached it quickly, for example to go through a car wash?
