That's the one! Cheaper there than most if not all other sites. Shipping is a little pricey... but it arrives quickly and packaged well.

Excellent construction... stainless steel. Very easy to install.

That was actually the first site I checked for a link, but I found it incredibly difficult to find what I wanted to see...

How far out does the plate stick from the bumper? Can anyone take an above angle shot?

This is with the euro bracket. It is preeeetty close. There is a rubber grommet to prevent the bracket from hitting the bumper.

I also ordered the standard bracket but did not install.

Dane has the kit too... his sticks out a leeettle beet farther... not sure what size tow hook bolt adapter he got...

I don't understand how y'all with the 3x-mm kits can get away with it.. the bumper is curved enough to cause interference with the plate, no? The way I measured it, I would have to get the 8x-9x-mm kit for the plate to clear the bumper...

How on earth could I have measured it wrong??? That's what the ruler said...

Botond posted the link to the gominigo.com website earlier in this thread (post #2) so I ordered the 30-38mm kit from gominigo.com. Turned out this kit worked perfectly for my ZHP :thumbsup Props to Botond for the link :rockon

The kit from the shipping box:

The measurement is just from where the shoulder of the tow hook sits to the opening in the bumper. You don't need to account for the entire curvature of the front bumper.

Both brackets are the "no holes" license plate brackets. The one in the top picture is for a euro plate. I don't need to run a front license plate in my state.

Nice pics Charlie! Really shows the standoff distance from the plate to the bumper well.

I'm glad you like it! It really looks good.

Thanks Bill!

Yeah, I wanted to show everyone the kit and distance from the plate to bumper so there wouldn't be any questions for anyone else. :thumbsup

I agree. Almost gives it a sorta "3D" look.
