Anyone figured out how to mount the front license plate on the bumperette? I lost the plastic bumperette cover and I'm not crazy about where the plate sits now because I moved it for the 20" Rigid.

You could drill new holes and put some spacers in to make it stick out to the bumperette. Idk if I'd do it but it should work

I did the same thing with my plate on the stock bumper. I ended up putting it on the bumperete just using the factory plate bracket and it's hardware

how did you mount it to the bumperette? was the cover still on it or did you remove it to connect some hardware to the underlying honeycomb structure?

Cover was still there I actually pulled the cover off drill holes in, bolted the plate bracket on with the factory nuts and bolt that held it to the bumper then put the cover back on, bolted the whole thing back to the bumper

My plate is all solid colors and a local graphix guy duplicated my plates on a decal that's reflective. Its my plate just no metal backer. Been 3 years now and no issues. got 2 for $20.00. Rolled right around from bumper to skid plate.
