R58 Tow Hook License Plate Mount
Tow Hook License Plate Mount
Has anyone found one that fits the R58 with the JCW Aero bumper? My plates have arrived and I'd like to get that plastic tow hook cap over to OrangeCrush so I can get some painted rings.
Thanks
Thanks
I can't remember what the deal was with this. Was it that the fitting doesnt line up with the hole in the bumper? If thats the case its likely none will work. I am going in to the dealer today to have my plates put on and I have the craven speed license holder so I guess I will report back to whether it works or not. I have a 2012 Coupe S with the JCW package.

Let me know how that works for you.
I have the CravenSpeed holder on my JCW Roadster, which I guess should have the identical front aero kit as the JCW coupe. The post could stand to be 1/2 inch longer, maybe, but it *does* fit for me, even with a license plate frame backing the plate itself.
Thanks. I will pick one up then.

So back from the dealer and the Craven speed mount did not work. If you screw it all the way in, which you have to, then the backing plate wont clear the bumper let alone any screws that have to go through it. But I called Craven speed and they are sending me a spacer and longer bolt to extend it so it should work out. I will post back when I know.
So with the spacer and longer bolt CravenSpeed sent me it works great. They also sent me some angle blocks incase I wanted to angle it out I think. It is almost too far off the bumper but really only about 1/2 inch at the closest. I may play around with the angle blocks to see if I like it more also.
If you get one I would just ask when you order to get the spacer and longer bolt. Im really happy with it. I may shave down the spacer a little but going to see how it goes for a week.
