Could probably really damage your frame by transferring energy through the hook.
I used to run a non drilled braket on my previous E92. It's this little bracket that uses washers and bolts to attached onto the lower center bumper intake mesh. Then the plate comes up above it and displays right where the factory plate mount displays the plate. This is not a piece that is quick to install or remove, so you'd in essence be running it all the time. Kind of a pain also at car washes.
This is why I just mounted my painted factory plate. I just had to stop caring.

Is this the bracket you mentioned you were running on your previous e92?
