Can anyone recommend a good license plate frame?

I want to swap out the black plastic from the dealership. I found nissan maximum stainless steel ones on the nissan accessories site but those are listed for the 2014 maximas. Not sure if there would be issues.

What does everyone else use? Thanks.

Shouldn't be any issues. I believe license plate frames for automobiles are all the same size with the same bolt patterns to fit any make model year in the USA.

Good deal. Second problem I have is that I'm required to have a front license plate but there's no frame attached.

Does anyone know of a no drill front license plate holder that would work?

Google "stealth front license plate"... lots of no front bump drill options.

All new Maximas come with a plastic bag in the trunk which contains, among other things, a front bumper license bracket. But they usually require drilling holes in the bumper, so I would check out the reference given in the post just ahead of mine by The Wizard.

I was given a stainless steel Nissan license bracket by a friend who works for Nissan Public Relations, but it did not fit exactly into the very slightly recessed area for the rear tag. So I pulled out the old plastic dealer tag I have used on previous Maximas and used it again. I spray painted the thing black around fifteen years ago, so the dealer name is no longer visible. I have a brilliant silver 2016 with black valence diffuser, and install nothing on my car that is not black, so I would have sanded and painted the stainless steel one black if I had used it.
