I felt padded bottom, back teeth/retainers of frame to ensure that it never makes metal-to-paint contact with car finish, and also have license installed with decently thick small rubber washers behind license (at upper screw holes) to keep plate/frame off car finish up top as well. I have narrow, outdoor-grade 3M double-sided adhesive mounting tape on inside of frame on all four sides to keep plate 100% secure/padded within the frame. Finally, I have outdoor grade adhesive velcro attached to both bottom area of plate backside and car to keep plate 100% secure and vibration free on bottom as well. Even aggressively shutting the trunk doesn't jar/move the license/frame one bit, and the license/frame metal never makes direct contact with my car finish. It was a bitch getting the frame back off my Yaris when I traded her in. It took some work to get that sucker off.
