To attach the license plate bracket to the front bumper of your Ford Escape, you'll require a rivet gun and a drill. Be sure to pre-drill the necessary holes before inserting the rivet into the gun. Align the bracket's holes properly, then firmly squeeze the rivet into place. The cost of the bracket typically falls between $15 and $30. Alternatively, there are brackets available that adhere with double-sided tape, though these are not as long-lasting as the drilled-in options.

That answer isn't correct. There's a lot more to consider. It's not helpful.

Grab a rivet gun to attach the bracket to the bumper. Make sure to first drill holes, insert the long end of the rivet into the gun, line up the holes on the license plate, and finally, firmly squeeze the rivet in place.

If you have a 2019 model and received a bracket from Ford with plastic pop rivets, you will need a rivet gun that fits 1/4" rivets (costing around $20). First, mark the hole positions on your bumper and drill 1/4" holes at these locations. Insert the longer end of the plastic rivet into the rivet tool, push the shorter, wider end through the bracket and into the hole on the bumper. Follow the instructions to use the rivet gun and repeat for the other two holes. Finally, attach the plate using the screws provided in the bracket kit. Congratulations, you have completed the task!

I recently received my front license plate holder from Ford, but it didn't come with any instructions. David recommended using a 1/4-inch drill bit, which is exactly what I needed. Thanks!
