Front plate relocation?

[realjones88]

I have mine over the grill in stock location. Never had any issues and you won't have any just driving on streets. If you are offroading you can always just take it off (I leave it on again no issues).

Did you just screw it into the bumper or use a nut and bolt? My friend also has one of those aluminum siding breaks. I can make a nice bent to profile the skid plate.

I bought a cheap bracket on Amazon, and bent it, tapped the bumper behind the mesh, no issues for the last year

hands down the best solution is from @Swarfworks

Yea, it may be the best, but I like the center mount over to the side. Also does that block any kind of sensors?

That's what I went with. Didn't want the plate off to the side, but in the end, it's just a license plate.

Yea maybe something like this. Found a old plate laying around and bent it. Maybe get the grill mount one then bend it down when the skid plate starts. I don’t want to drill into the bumper View attachment 149984View attachment 149985View attachment 149986

I have seen this done on Raptors and other vehicles using industrial grade Velcro, professional quality from a supplier like McMaster Carr. There is a nice Ratrod that`s around on Friday cruise night and he used 3M bonding adhesive to keep his on and I think it`s like one with the car, never coming off

If you ever need any special hardware this is the place to find it. Along with everything else imaginable

I had moved mine over to the lower side but don`t like the off center look

No issues with sensors

what light bar is that?
How’d you attach it?
Thanks

No issues with sensors

If it was mounted on the driver side it would be blocking a sensor but since it’s in the passenger side you’re clear. I’m considering this mount also because NY sucks and likes front plates and being UnAmerican
