    I bought the car in Arizona, where the frontal license plate is not required. Now I am in California and I need to put on the plate. I noticed it it gently curved with under the frontal toyota mark.

    Can anyone suggest a frame that would work well?, am afraid to check with the dealer... amazon seems to have plenty but not sure which will fit.

    thanks,

    Welcome to the Prius-v forum.

    Get a part number from the dealer, then you can use that to find substitutes online. There should be 2 little "nipples" on the bumper cover, which mark the location for screws. The bumper itself should be pre-drilled for the OE screws.

    Hopefully it comes with the right screws. ;)
    You need 4, 2 for the bracket and 2 for the plate.
