How's the quality of the mount? Is it sturdy? And where in MD are you? I have a black LE and would be cool to see it side by side with yours

Does the Supra use a typical BMW rear bracket like this?I know the thread says front license plate bracket... I hope you guys could help me out with how your factory rear license plate is held in place by?? I told the dealer not to drill anything on the car. My hard plates came in the mail and need to mount them on the car. I looked in the plastic bag with screws. It looks like the long screw might be the one to hold the bracket in place and shorter one to screw the plate on the bracket. Can someone take a picture of it and post it?
Yes, it does. The difference is that BMWs have those metal thread where the bracket is suppose to mount on to with a screw. But on the Supra, there is two dimples on the rear bumper to indicate where to drill. I guess the long screws will thread onto something behind the bumper? I just wanted to make sure before I started drilling and stuffDoes the Supra use a typical BMW rear bracket like this?

If so, there are two long coarse thread screws to attach the bracket to the car, and then 2-4 short screws to hold the plate to the bracket.
The Supra bracket is very similar but not identical to the bracket shown in your post. The Supra bracket has a BMW part number. Two long screws are used to attach the bracket to the bumper and either two or four smaller screws are used to attach the plate to the bracket. The two long screws are self drilling and most dealers would use an electric driver with a phillips head bit to drill/drive the screws through each of the two holes in the bracket and into the dimples in the bumper. The Supra bracket does not have the four embedded nuts to accept small bolts that would be used to attach the plate. Instead, the small screws (not bolts) included with the frame screw through the plate directly into holes in plastic bracket without any metal support.Yes, it does.
