Description
The Mishimoto MMLP-Z-23 License Plate Relocation Kit was engineered specifically for the 2023+ Nissan Z to solve one very specific problem: a front plate mount sitting dead-center in the grille, blocking airflow and adding wind resistance. Instead of forcing owners to drill into a brand-new bumper, this kit relocates the plate to the OEM front tow hook location, giving the Z a cleaner face and a freer-breathing grille.
By angling the plate off to the side and away from the grille opening, this Mishimoto license plate relocation kit clears critical intake area so more air reaches the radiator, helping your Z run cooler. It’s built from high-strength 6061 aluminum with a black anodized shaft and a black powder coated bracket, giving it a corrosion-resistant finish that’s made to hold up outdoors. The design follows the contours of the front bumper, and because it bolts directly to the existing tow hook mount, there’s no cutting, drilling, or permanent modification required. Everything needed for installation, including stainless-steel license plate screws, is included in the box, and like other Mishimoto products, this kit is backed by the Mishimoto Lifetime Warranty.
