Front License Plate Bracket alternative

I heard the team at GOMINIGO was looking to develop a front license plate mounting bracket for the modern Ford GT.

So, I got in touch with Jason and Meg, and provided careful measurements and photographs to help with development of the bracket, for the proper clearance, look, angle, and fit.

I have zero financial interest in this product or company, just thought those of you that are required to, or choose to run front plates might be interested in another option other than the factory bracket.

I thought all the hardware was nicely finished and solid. And, I'll let the final photos (hopefully) speak for themselves.

Note: The kit comes with one bracket, although two are shown in the fitment picture with all the hardware. I decided to use the flat offset bracket for my install. Likewise, tools shown in picture are mine, although it does come with one basic L allen wrench.

Oh, not sure. Hope it's not a sponsoring forum vendor. If so, feel free to delete my post. I wasn't aware there was already something out there. Just thought this might be an alternative for those that run a front plate.

The good thing is that it made me take the time to really clean out all the front "attached" Texas Butterflies that had so much fun, they wanted to join the GT for the transport back to California.

I think the issue with the tow hook solution is its alway off center/crooked given that the edge/corner of the opening is slightly curved.

I think the best solution is to maybe make a bracket that fits to the center of that radiator bracket.

That way its centered and aligns with center view, logo, etc.

I think this plate holderwould work with just new brackets
