    I recently completed my final design of a removable front license plate bracket for the 360's with an XX mesh type grill. It fits great on either side of my friend's car (1st 3 pictured). No drilling or tools are required to install or remove it. I want to see if it would also fit on a 430 of the same grill design but I do not have access to one locally (yet). The 430's spoiler seems to stick out more. If anyone can send me a dimension for the projection of the lower spoiler lip from the grill face (shown in the the photo between the two white arrows) I can at least verify if my current design (I call it the VX3-360) will work or if I need to modify it. Inches or mm is fine.
    Thanks for any help guys,
    PM me if you have any questions.

    Can anyone verify if the grill configurations are the same or different?

    Thanks,

    Swift motorsports makes a frame that fits flush on two runners under the front. You slide it up when you want or you can use a remote. It does add 1 inch to your clearance. Anyway its cool to check out.

    I just got sizing info that F430's with the "XXX" mesh Challenge grill have about a 1" larger front projection than the 360's. My VX3 bracket design will need to be slightly modified by projecting the plate mounting bar an inch more forward. I've named this modified design the VXL3-430 ("L" is added for longer).
    I'll post a photo of it mounted on a local 430 once it is done and I can connect with a 430 owner around my area to verify fit.
    (volunteers?)
    Regards,
    Bob R.
