I must say that the screws supplied with the Porsche front license plate kit are far too skinny to keep the plastic frame attached. Mine fell right out after I installed it. Really, it just fell right onto the garage floor as I pulled the car out!

You'll have to take the black screws that come with the kit to home depot and find really fat ones to sufficiently widen the plastic piece that goes into the holes and spreads behind it to hold the thing in place. In this case, girth is more important than length. <-- No enuendo intended, although it does read a little funny!

You know, we all get screwed with the outrageous prices we pay for Porsche parts, but when we actually buy a Porsche screw, it doesn't work!
