Default Front license plate mount

So I just learned that yes, I'm unfortunately in a state that requires both front and back license plates to be displayed on my car. However, I don't like how the license mounting holes on the front bumper (stock) require the license plate to hang down over the lower grille; especially as it will eclipse the fog lights I'm planning to install there.

I looked at ccmustangbrackets.com, but it looks like those will hang down over the lower grill as well. Is there a bracket made that will allow me to mount my license plate to the center of the bumper, versus having it hang down over the lower grill?

I have considered building one that sets the plate off to the right side allowing my racing stripes to be unhindered. I have heard some one makes a fold-away one for show cars but I don't know more than that. sorry

Ha You must be in OHIO that is where I live and Ohio is so set on that front plate you get a $100.00 ticket just for having a tinted plate cover here too. I can't think of what it would be for not having the front plate on your car, impound, 30 days in the hole, death.

Yea, it sucks here in Ohio having to have that front plate! I just said screw it, and drilled 2 holes in my bumper, Plan on replacing the front bumper eventually anyways, it's better than getting pulled over everyday by the Dublin police and getting a stinkin fix it ticket.
