Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between SnapPlate and SnapPlate+?

SnapPlate is our original, safety-first design that has breakaway features to help prevent damage to your vehicle in worst-case scenarios like car washes and parking accidents.

SnapPlate+ is our newer design that has reinforced features for maximum strength. It's still safer for the vehicle than metal, but it's nearly twice as strong as SnapPlate.

Are SnapPlates car wash safe?

Touchless car washes are generally ok, but a touch wash will grab and pull until something breaks and we don't want that to be the plastic grille on your vehicle.

If touch washes are your priority and you don't want to remove the SnapPlate for it, the license plate mount that came with your vehicle is the best option for you.

If SnapPlate is easy to remove, isn't it easy to steal?

Most license plates are easy to steal when they're installed with simple screws that are easy and quick to remove with power tools.

SnapPlates come with anti-theft security screws to attach the license plate to the SnapPlate and, optionally, to secure the SnapPlate to the vehicle. It can be quick and easy to remove, but only if you want it to be.

Why are SnapPlates made from plastic instead of metal?

SnapPlates attach to the plastic bumper or grille on vehicles. In a worst-case scenario where something pushes or pulls hard enough on the license plate to break something, we'd rather it be the SnapPlate than your vehicle since it's far less expensive and inconvenient to repair.

You can read more about why we choose plastic over metal in our blog post here.

SnapPlate+ is an all-new design optimized for strength:

  • Base with added side ribs and additional stainless steel reinforcement
  • Thicker plate mount with longer stainless steel fasteners
  • Larger-diameter, adjustable-fit, rotating latches with multiple contact points distribute stress on the grille

SnapPlate is our original design with features optimized for grille safety:

  • Base with breakaway rotating latches
  • Optional breakaway joints are available separately for plate mounts
  • Lighter construction designed to sacrifice itself in touch car washes and minor parking accidents

This is a smart design that works well. As far as I'm aware, there is no other way to mount a front plate on a Model X.
