Subaru Impreza / Wrx 2008+ Oem License Plate Bracket C&c Car Worx I-08-fp on 2040-parts.com
Portsmouth, Rhode Island, US
This bracket was purchased directly from a Subaru dealer in NJ. I decided not to use it, it is brand new, with all the required installation hardware.
Giving a more finished appearance to the vehicle, this accessory provides a sturdy, more elevated mounting for the license plate, protecting it from damage. One of the most popular items customers order, it enhances the Impreza’s front end styling, and makes a beautiful first impression.
This license plate bracket is designed and manufactured to screw into the existing license plate mounting locations in the Subaru bumpers. Subaru provides dimples in the front bumper for the mounting of license plates. These dimples are not holes until you screw into them with our supplied screws which have a very sharp point designed to create the opening required to gain access to the factory-installed fasteners.
Subaru does not open these holes because there are states that do not require front license plates.
So, when you order this front license plate bracket, you can easily use the dimples as the location into which to mount this product. Not only does that make installation easy, it preserves the integrity of your model's design.
Note: Some Subaru models have holes in the front bumper, (some square, some round,) which are for non-U.S. plates. These holes are not used in the installation of this product. You will notice that on those models, the dimples are found in the area between the non-U.S. holes in the center of the bumper. And once installed, the front license plate bracket will cover up any non-U.S. holes, giving your vehicle a clean, sleek, finished appearance.
A NOTE REGARDING FITMENT OF THIS PART ON NEWER WRX MODELS: This part fits all models indicated but the lower tape on some models may not make contact with the bumper which changed slightly in recent manufacturing. However, the screws hold the part snugly in place so the lower tape is not necessary for proper installation.

Why carmakers say no to battery swapping
Mon, 18 Oct 2010There's a strange disconnect surrounding Better Place, the company best known for its plan to extend the range of electric vehicles by relying on speedy battery swaps. Automotive executives are nearly unanimous in dismissing the idea. With the conspicuous exception of Nissan-Renault CEO Carlos Ghosn, rarely does an executive express interest.
2015 Cadillac ATS-V spied chasing BMW M3
Mon, 03 Jun 2013The Cadillac ATS was conceived as a BMW 3-series fighter, so it stands to reason that a hotter version of the rear-wheel drive sedan -- a Cadillac ATS-V -- would be called forth to challenge the mighty M3. New spy photos seem to show just that. Of course, this could be a case of a privately owned BMW M3 being in the right place at the right time, catching up with what appears to be a heavily camouflaged Cadillac ATS-V on the road somewhere outside metropolitan Detroit.
Porsche Macan ‘FAILS’ Moose Test – but there’s a reason (+video)
Wed, 15 Oct 2014The Porsche Macan locks its front brake in the Moose Test The Moose (or Elk) test is a maneuverability and stability test commonly carried out in cold countries to test the behaviour of cars when subject to extreme avoidance tests – such as when trying to miss a Moose that’s wandered in to the road. The Moose Test is probably best remembered as the potential downfall of the original Mercedes A Class, when Teknikens Värld Magazine conducted a test on the then very new – and groundbreaking – high-riding A-Class, when it rolled over and cost Mercedes a small fortune in re-engineering to restore safety credibility to the A-Class. Now it’s Porsche’s turn to come under the spotlight after Teknikens Värld ran a test on a Macan S Diesel that exhibited some strange behaviour during the test.
