Clean Fascia C6 Front License Plate Mounts In the Store

Clean Fascia C6 front license plate mounts are now available in the Corvette Store. Made especially for mounting front license plates on C6 Coupes and Convertibles (not Z06), this is a great alternative to the factory mount which glues to the front fascia.

Install it in minutes with no holes to drill. Allows front plate display in two plate states.* (*Please note that Clean Fascia is mounted so low on the front of the C6 it may not meet inspection requirements in some states.) Find out more about this unique product and place your order online at: http://store.corvettemuseum.com/detail.aspx?ID=1071
