Simple solution my friend. If, like me, you have the stock license plate 
holder, that bolts under the bumper, all you have to do is *flip* the 
holder upside down, and bolt it at the same two holes. You would have to 
find longer nuts than the ones you currently have attaching your holder. 
Maybe a minor amount of bending of the holder, too, to have it pointing 
straight down. Mine has been that way for over a year now and it looks 
nice. Not only is it nice-looking, but, if you have a Kamei front 
spoiler, also prematurely warns you of impending doom when you are about 
to contact a parking curb (the license plate "hits" the curb first and 
you know where to stop :-)
