Customer states:
 No customer concerns, it is found during PDI or any other diagnostic work.
Workshop findings:
 The front bumper cover and fascia do not provide obvious mounting points for the front license plate.

Technical Background
The design aesthetic of the new Audi e-tron GT/Audi RS e-tron GT makes the addition of a front license plate
carrier prohibitive. The front license plate is attached directly to the front bumper cover/grille assembly without the
use of a license plate carrier.

Production Solution
Not applicable.
