Description
Upgrade your vehicle's front-end appearance with the COBB Tuning Redline Carbon Fiber License Plate Relocation Mount, designed for compatible Subaru WRX, Subaru BRZ, and Toyota 86 applications. Featuring a full carbon fiber backing plate and adjustable mounting positions, this premium accessory provides a clean, motorsport-inspired alternative to traditional front license plate mounting.
The COBB Redline License Plate Relocation Mount uses the vehicle's factory tow hook mounting location, eliminating the need to drill or cut the front bumper. This helps preserve the original bumper finish while allowing the license plate to be positioned away from the center of the front grille, helping maintain the appearance of the vehicle's front end and reducing potential obstruction of the cooling area.
Constructed with a 2x2 twill carbon fiber weave, the backing plate adds a premium visual detail that complements other carbon fiber exterior accessories. Multiple mounting orientations allow for greater positioning flexibility, while durable mounting hardware helps keep the plate securely attached.
The mount is also compatible with select COBB front-mount intercooler (FMIC) kits, making it a practical accessory for enthusiasts upgrading their vehicle's cooling system while maintaining a functional front license plate position.
Manufactured by COBB Tuning, this Redline Carbon Fiber License Plate Relocation Mount combines premium materials, adjustable positioning, and a no-drill installation approach for a cleaner, more customized exterior.
