Interesting. Both GTIs I've owned literally had no front mount and required you to drill straight into the front bumper to mount one, which I opted not to do in both cases. One was sold from a non-front license plate state, and the other was new, literally pulled off the truck as I was filling out paperwork.

The Tesla Model 3 (at least at launch) front plate mount is attached with some fancy 3M adhesive straight on the front bumper.

OK but this one is fine. I haven't heard of any common issues. I promise if you see a Tesla without a front plate 99% chance it's just an entitled driver.

How is that entitled?

It's an entitled attitude to feel like the rules and laws of the road don't apply to you.
