Number plate fixing on new defender?

Does anyone have any photos of how the bumpers look on the ND as delivered to the dealer before they attach plates/plate holder? Are there screw holes?

Thanks in advance
Adam.

Got my dealer to double side tape front and rear.
No holes and no front plinth.

Cheers, want to fit a shortened plate and dont want screw holes to deal with. I will get them to put that in writing before it arrived in the showroom for PDI.

I bought a Slye bracket. No jokes in bumper. Works great.

After a lost my front plate in a ditch with mud and water and had to re-register the car ( back than I was living in Germany and this are rules there ) It was covid, apoitment only could not drive the car for a month.. I think the front one I will fix with 4 bolts, i don't care how ugly will look, after the hassle I had.

My 90 came from the factory with a plinth, though not the 110.
