Euro Plate Frame Mount?

Anyone know where to purchase a mount to hold a Euro frame where the Tow Hook would mount up front.

Here is the plate frame I am ordering:

Euro Plate Frame Mount?-mini-license-plate-frame.jpg

This will just be to run a cosmetic plate up front. I've seen the one on CravenSpeed, but Im sure that's a set for a US plate.

Im just looking for a mount to hold this frame.

Thanks...

Bump...

Found this:

http://www.outmotoring.com/platypus-...te-holder.html
Platypus "Euro-Plate" Hole-less License Plate Holder DETAILS. SKU CR-MC-006911

Has anyone used this, and does it come with everything needed to mount?

Based on the pictures, the euro version looks the same. It has a threaded standoff that you mount the plate holder to. There are bolts and nylon lock nuts to attach the plate to the holder. Mine also came with plastic clips as an alternative to the bolts.
