Anyone taken delivery where Ford complied with customer request to not install front plate bracket?

Right on our packet, DO NOT MOUNT FRONT PLATE and NO DEALER STICKER.

Pissed when I bought the Flex, the dealer drilled into a virgin bumper just to mount their temporary cardboard advertising plate. Lucky I have some plastic grommets that look close enough to factory to plug the holes.

My NJ dealer had no issue with not mounting the factory bracket, but I did tell and show them the bracket I purchased from HBTFD

Yes, my dealer complied with not drilling for front plate as well as no dealer stickers.

I requested our dealer JUST do their PDI, and nothing else. They did with no questions or issues.

I reached out to my sales guy and bronco specialist at the dealership I'm getting mine out and I got this from them:

Then again after the last shit show I had there, they might be babying me and taking care of what I want LOL

My dealer did not install the bracket, at my request (it's required to have a front plate in TX).
He laughed at me because I kept reminding him, but years ago, I ordered a (Chrysler) vehicle, and gave the dealership a "do/do not" checklist in writing, and kept a signed copy. when the vehicle came in and they drilled holes in the front fascia for the license plate, I made them replace the part at their expense.

Also in Jersey - I reached out to dealer telling them to not drill anything and hold the factory bracket when mine was on the way from Michigan and they complied. Bought the Builtright Ind. relocation bracket.

On the F-150, the front plate bracket ships in the glove box.
On Bronco, I think it's just in a plastic baggie in the rear cargo area.

Dealer installs it.

Best/recommend front brackets? I thought more of that would come up in this thread. I see a few threads but nothing consolidated, and some recommendations for other bumpers (I have the "capable" bumper).

My dealer honored my request to not install the front bracket, but just in case I may want a temporary non-permanent solution to mount a front plate if needed.

CO requires front plates. I asked the dealership to not install and when I picked up my truck, the plate holder was in the back. No holes in the paint.

I'm in New York and my dealer actually brought it up and told me they aren't going to drill on my front plate and i never put one on cause it looks too good

I'm in NJ and my dealer respected my wishes.

My dealer never installed it and I didn't think to ask them not to. It was in a bag behind the seat.

my dealer also did not install (picked up Monday) and thought i would have a couple of weeks to figure out an option but just got the call my plates are ready. Need to figure something out now
