Recently bought a new 2023 Z71 Tahoe. In the past I've always had a front tag with my favorite sports team, etc. but not sure I want to drill into the bumper on this one. Has anyone found another way to mount or have thoughts on adding the front tag in general? Pictures would be great if anyone is willing to share. Would love to see what some look like with a vanity tag added.

Ugh..yes, please do not drill. I ordered my Yukon and told the dealer NOT to install the front plate and they did. So I had to remove the front plate and add color matched plugs. Still annoys me everytime I see it.

Get a No Drill License Plate holder. https://www.slybrackets.com/

Just place it on the passenger side dash behind the windshield. That's what everyone around here does, which looks worse than mounting it where it's supposed to be :oops:

This is one of those ridiculous arguments IMO. As if not having a front plate makes it look so amazing or something. They look exactly the same with or without it, like a big brick on wheels full of crying kids going to soccer practice. Mine came without it installed and I PAID another dealer to install it the next week

Ha, alright good to know, drilling into the front = sacrilege. I will hold off.
Lol. I don’t care either way. It’s just fun to watch some of these peeps meltdown when someone does things to their own truck. :p I say **** ‘em. It’s your truck. Drill if you want to.

You could away get some 3M exterior trim 2 sided tape and stick it on that way.
