It will be a MUST for the CR-Z, and, as I suspect the plate is going dabsmack in the center of the new Si grille opening so that too will be a good candidate for this type of thing

Too unbalanced and "stuck on" looking. I'd rather use the OEM mount.

For the S, I just go without

But on the CR-Z I think it looks great
I figure I'll have a plate on everything I drive except the S

I gave my idea to Larry at moweraxle.com
Great guy.
I already have a patent, so it proves that at one point in my life I had an idea...

Hope your weather is better than here in Plattsburgh, currently 35 and it's been snowing all day. Luckily it really isn't sticking too much.
Tomorrow sunny and high 40's then snow showers return on Sat. By mid next week maybe 70.....'bout time.

Thought about driving the S back to work after lunch.

The gray skies convinced me otherwise.

Plus my intake filter isn't 100% dry yet from the cleaning.
