Front license plate

My state doesn't require a front mounted license plate. How are you guys removing it without damaging the bumper or visually making it look bad?

I told my dealer not to install it and then I used some black push pins to cover the holes.

There are going to be two holes in your bumper if it's been installed. Not much you can do about it.

Mobile, aren't the holes standard on every Raptor?

You can plug the holes with some black covers from home depot, lowes, etc. Something like $.97/ea. With the plugs in you barely notice.

That's the best option.....I did the same after a year and a half...

This is not merely an appearance thing. In some states if you have a front license plate holder with nothing in it, you are in violation of the law. My wife got pulled over for this "violation."

That's possible. On previous vehicles, particularly ones with plastic bumper covers, they might be indented so you know where to screw into but they're not drilled out.

Got it...I know I told my dealer not to install the plate 'holder' knowing I had to run a front plate. I just use the same holes already in the bumper to mount my plate directly.

In fact, I use stainless bolts with wing nuts to attach it so that when my creative photographic juices begin to flow I can quickly remove the plate....
