Default Licence plate fell off

A snow bank pulled my licence plate off, the whole plastic attachment piece and everything. those little plastic stubs broke/got lost, how can I reattach it?

I'm not comfortable with my licence plate in my window :/

Get a new plate mount from the pick 'n pull? Maybe post a picture of what came off so we can see what's missing.

I like it without one! lol

Well, take a look on the parts store websites. Maybe ebay, too? not sure.
Until then, you could always thread a couple zip ties through the bumper to hold that plate on.

You could just screw the play to the bumper. That's what I did when I took my plate mount off.

why not just run a longer bolt through it with a pair of washers and stick a nut on the back side. no bracket? no problem!

since there is no plastic on my bumper at all, and i'm in a front/back plate required state, i have been rolling on zip tes for over a year now

but in my defense, my truck looks like slapped a$$ half the time
