Hello, I have cut all ties with my beyond horrible dealership already and now noticed they sold it to me without a front plate bracket ( which is a law here in Ohio). I have a the cover but I need a plate so is there a bracket through GMC? None of the holes now line up so assuming there has to be something else that goes there.

If I recall (its been a few years ago) when I got my truck it came with a dealer logo plate installed up front, I removed it and added the filler panel when I got home.  When doing so, I noticed it looked like they had to drill the two holes out for the plate.  There was leftover plastic roughings around the 2 screw areas, so I figured they probably had spots marked for the holes if you needed them, but weren't predrilled from factory.  plate holder seemed like a standard plastic one you could probably get anywhere.

When I bought my '17, I specifically told the dealer that if I saw a dealer emblem on my truck when I came to pick it up, then they could keep the thing. Fortunately, they complied with my wishes.

This guy has your answer.  That center section between the tow hooks.  The plate attaching point is not visible if the cover is in place on there.  If the cover is on yours, you have to remove it (2 or 4 screws from the back side) to expose the plate attaching area.  No "bracket" on a 2014-2015 GMC 1500.

No the cover is off mine and I see the holes however the ones that line up with my plate the screws provided aren't being held by anything. The screws just spin and won't hold the plate

I did the same, fortunately my truck was just delivered from GM and I bought it before they had a chance to bling it with their crap. They wanted to though. When I went to pick it up, the salesman had a hoaky plastic chrome emblem sitting on his desk on top of my paper work. I said, I hope you're not planning to put that thing on my truck, to which it disappeared into his desk drawer.

I know this post is 3 years old but I can't find anything that fits the front of my truck for a license plate. I figured I would give it a shot. Did you ever resolve this?  I've ordered the filler piece, as well as an actual bracket, and nothing lines up or fits to actually hold a license plate on the front of my 2014 sierra SLT. Recently moved to Texas that requires a front plate.

I'm in the same boat with the 2014 GMC Sierra Crew Cab long bed I just inherited from my brother. I had a local independent garage put the tag on the front for me (required in my state) and a few months later I noticed the self tapping screws he used are majorly loose---he just attached to the plastic section underneath the chrome bumper, which I told him to put it there, didn't want to drill in the metal bumper and start rust, but I expected him to use small bolts/nuts. :(
