It does not feel flimsy and I'd expect it to last here in Southern California because rust is not a problem. <br /> <br />What I don't like is the mounting holes at the lower part of the frame. I know that license plates also have mounting holes at the bottom, but I have not seen a car that used those for attaching license plates. I would prefer tabs at the bottom of the frame or maybe some sort of covers to give it a finished look. <br /> <br />Overall, a good product at a good price.

I didn't even notice it, but I said I'd see what I could do. About a week later I installed this on her car (real easy) and now I have to say that it nicely completed the chrome job on her ride. Worth the money and has held up great. Rating: 5 / 5 My wife got a new car and didn’t like the way the license plate looked. I didn’t even notice it, but I said I’d see what I could do.

Looks better than the black plastic one from the dealer. Don't put it on the front bumper -- one bump and it'd be toast.

There are definitely more expensive, heavier duty frames. But if you're looking for something inexpensive and simple, this is it. Great price for a great product.

The Meguiar's One Step along with a Meguiar's W4000 wool cutting pad cut through severe oxidation and left a very smooth, glossy finish. It was worth every penny, and with 32 oz. of compound, I have enough to do my 20' bowrider many, many times over. Less than $60 for a Harbor Freight rotary buffer, compound, and a pad, and my boat looks almost new -- much cheaper than paying a detailer!!

I did it by hand and it still worked well. I used a good wax after and time will tell how long the restored shine will last Rating: 5 / 5 Worked well on my 5th wheel gelcoat siding.

You have to use a wool compounding pad with a rotary buffer. I spread the product on with an applicator, work in 2x2 ft sections and work it in until it disappears, then buff off with microfiber. Then I apply more polish or wax that you prefer,by hand and remove with a microfiber. I used nu-finish as its easy to apply and very affordable.
