How do I mount the license plat on an M50? Is there something I gotta buy?

Take it back to the dealer, there are some pop-out holes that need to be punched through. In my state (Minnesota) the dealers have a temporary plate that they put on.

they arent punchout holes, there are 2 "slits" in the plastic mounting bracket. push the bolts through here and use wingnuts or regular nuts with washers to attach. did the dealer not put on at least a temporary tag for you??

I just centered the plate the best I could, made my marks and drilled them myself.
I did'nt have any popout holes though.

If your gonna drill holes, just search for zuki dudes fender post. It looks much better too.

I ended up zip tying it. Its actually held on real good... temporary solution.

Yea, don't mess with it. Go look at Zuki's site. It really cleans up the rear and shows off the tire.
