Size: Miata MX-5 2006-2015


Features

  • IMPROVE THE LOOK OF YOUR MIATA: This is not a one size fits all. We tested hundreds of configurations on vehicle models to be compatible with Mazda MX-5 Miata [NC] (2006-2015). The Platypus fits your bumper like it was meant to be there.
  • EASY TO REMOVE: This updated version of the Platypus has a key-hole feature in the backplate that makes it very easy to remove without having to take your license plate off, leaving no trace that it was ever there.
  • NO DRILLING, NO RISKS: The Platypus utilizes the existing tow eye in your bumper, so you do not have to drill any holes in your new car. This method of installing the front plate is common and legal in all states that require front license plates.
  • BUILT TO LAST FOREVER: The Platypus plate is machined from 6061 aluminum with a durable black powder-coat finish that will not rust, fade, or bend.
  • MADE IN USA: Each Platypus is made here in the US of A. They are machined and powder-coated in good ol' Portland, OR. Even the boxes are made here!

  • NC2 Miata
Size: Miata MX-5 2006-2015
Just installed on my 2011 Miata Sport. The Cravenspeed kit seems to be very well made and as a bonus it came with four stainless license plate bolts. Not inexpensive but again a very quality piece made in the USA

  • Heavy Duty Steel won't bend or break like cheap imitations.
Size: MX-5 Miata 2016-2025
The Platypus mount by Cravenspeed is by far one of the best mounts on the market. Made in the USA and crafted from thick heavy duty steel plates, this sucker wont bend, people can bump into your car and it still won't damage this plate holder. the price they ask is backed by some of the best customer service I've ever had the pleasure of dealing with. I've purchased 4 separate plate mounts from Cravenspeed and won't stop. Ease of install is a bit difficult for certain models. This specific one for the MX-5 was difficult as the instructions were not clear. however a quick youtube tutorial and looking at the hardware installed made install a breeze. total install time was under an hour. **** you will need a long socket adapter in order to install some of these mounts. specifically for the MX5 you will need a socket wrench and preferably a long socket. the included metal wrenches do nothing to install the tow hook receiver. Highly recommended purchase if you have a nice car and want the best flush looking front plate mount in the industry. ... show more

  • Good solution for that ugly front license plate.
Size: MX-5 Miata 2016-2025
Not too hard to figure out how to install especially with the YouTube video. Some minor bending of the bracket gives the plate proper clearance from the car’s painted surfaces.

  • Good product, but....
Size: MX-5 Miata 2016-2025
The installation instructions that came in the box were a joke, and the video on the Amazon listing wasn't much better. As a result, it took me three tries to figure out how to install this and I almost gave up and returned it. In the end, the installation is simple, it is just not as readily apparent as the manufacturer seems to think. The price of over $100 seems a bit steep as well considering what it is. ... show more

  • Works well on 2025 MX-5 Miata without adaptive cruise control
Nice fit on 2025 MX-5 Miata Club. I put some blue Loctite on the bolt that holds the license plate frame to the extension arm because I didn't feel confident that I was able to get the bolt tight enough to keep the license plate from coming loose. This bracket is kind of expensive, but it allowed me to mount my plate without drilling any holes in the bumper. According to my dealer, Mazda doesn't have an OEM front license plate mount. They told me they would screw the plate to the front of the car if I wanted them to. The license plate is about somewhere between .25" and .5" from the bumper when it's mounted. I ordered some "Neoprene Rubber Strips Self Adhesive" to put on the back side of the plate to prevent any paint damage if it comes in contact with the bumper. ... show more

  • Neat for Miata's
Size: MX-5 Miata 2024-2025 WITH Sensors
Easy install for 2026 Miata RF Club. Looks sharp without having to mount license plate on the bumper, and you can easily take it off for the track or shows. I used blue loctite to ensure it won't vibrate loose.

  • Perfect fit and looks great.
Size: MX-5 Miata 2016-2025
Installed it on my 2022 Mazda ND2 Miata. It was easy to install and fits perfectly. CravenSpeed has a simple 2 minute installation video on their YouTube page. I like that it has the plate sit perfectly under the aero of the hood. Personally I wish it was a tiny bit farther from the paint but no issue with bend or anything. ... show more
