Default Looking for an alternate way to mount front plate

Just a way to mount your front plate if you don't want to block as much as the lower grill as the normal mount point does. If anyone would like a how 2 with pictures let me know I'll make one. Was very easy to do and only requires standard household tools.

Hard to tell from the picture shown, but no holes are drilled into the bumper and it is not held onto the stock grill with zip ties.

Pretty cool. There's also the Nor*Cal way :



Just use some long bolts and washers thru the honeycomb...

someone should make factory oem style bumpercovers with a pocket for front plates. I dunno if I'd pay a whole lot, but it seems like you could sell a few of them.

I like that NorCal but with a Billet grill I don't think that would be feasable. I used the 2 front mounting points for the front lip. I will take detaied pics today.
