Just don't put one of those on your Challenger with adaptive cruise control ! Was really pissed with the OE plate mount on the wife's when we arrived to pick it up. Absolutely ruins the look of the nose.

After 10 years, I decided to put the front plate on the Challenger. So I see one on a Motortrend tv show and get it. Dont care how it is off to the side, but no new holes needed. WITHIN HOURS, themechanic finds one made in USA that is centered. Can’t win.

Paying some attention to the Challenger so I get the idea of a Hellcat out of my head for a while, and stay in the good graces of Law Enforcement too. Keep hearing about guys getting stopped for no front plate. Has not happened to me yet.

Looks better than the factory mount and costs $50 less than the Sto n Sho.

Made in USA and centered. I wouldn’t have blinked. Can tell if any drilling required fo Mopar application after watching video.

I’m sending this back. Holes don’t line up, would require a hole drilled. I’ll get Mike’s but can’t find an application for 09 Challenger R/T. Maybe the mounts for the chin spoiler changed. If I knew it woulfpd fit, I’d get Mike’s. Maybe i cant figure out the “check fit” on Summit site.

 

[Dennis H]

Maybe I don’t know how to used “check fit” on Summit.

Both Summit and Mike's web sites say you need SNS1. Summit is about $10 less.

SNS1 it is. Summit shipping was 9.99, so bought from Mike. Free shipping. Cost a wash. At checkout linked to Amazon pay. Whole world is Amazon. Anyway this one does require drilling in an out os sight area and is in the middle where I want it. The plate will grind the parking bumpers now before the chin spoiler. Will train myself to stay back a bit. Thanks for helping me comply with LE.

I thought the Challengers had front parking sensors?

On the 09’s it is an abrupt banging noise. I knocked the second Zerk off the Coronet on Sunday. No more lubing the Hotchkis BumperKis.

I thought you flipped that sucker upside down for clearance?

I did, but instead of the bar, the strategically placed face down fittings now hit first. Or they used to, until I ground them both off. When I see slammed cars that look so cool, I want to see them roll through Willow Glen Plaza.

Big Mike is in Morgan Hill, California! That is 10 miles south of me. Buy local. This is good. Explains the high cost too. Cost a fortune to rent a shop around here.

I used to get pulled over all the time for no front plate when I lived in IL, I always wanted to get one of the retractable plates then when I get pulled over flip it out and watch the cop scratch his head.

 

[Dennis H]

Got it.

Big Mike. First time ever displayed. When parking, it will serve as a warning that the chin spoiler is next to hit, and won’t interfere with the cold air for the Blower.
