Wrong! Nissan give "technical" written instructions to the dealers to drill two 2" holes on the bumper to attach the license plate holder because the screws that hold the license plate are too long.

Which is freaking STUPID!

Good, since you read the manual. In what section and page you found the instructions? Because Nissan Co. is denying that they wrote those instructions for the holes to be drill.

Thanks!
