I had a nice custom front plate with my outdoor club's logo made. It arrived yesterday so I went to install it just to find that there were no screws for the plate holder.

Should the dealer have supplied the screws?

If not, what type and size should I use?

I don't believe they're dealer-supplied unless they put a dealer plate on the front.

I'm afraid I'm no help on what to use.

In Texas we are required to have a license plate on the front of the vehicle, when my permanent plates arrived I was surprised to see that Subaru didn't provide any plate holder or predrilled holes and that the dealership attached the plates with only two screws to the front bumper.

Yeah - me too - I went and bought a plate holder at Oreileys for about $5 - we'll see if it works when I get my tags. I saw Subaru sells one for like $28 - seems a little high to me?

I would take one of the screws from the rear and try it in front.

I didn't have screws for the front or the rear. I just went to my dealer and asked for 6 screws. They gave them to me for free. Also, if you only have the 2 holes for your front plate, they aren't aligned properly. However there are 2 small dimples on your bumper for starter "holes" for the screws.

It came with the plat holder installed and it looks to be aligned correctly. There just aren't any screws for the play to attach to the holder.

Guess I'll stop by the dealer this weekend and see if they can give me a couple.
