    Working hard finish final parts. Unfortunetly, I can not tell you when these brackets will be ready yet. Hope no more than three more months. Here's a preview of what it would look like installed.

    Positioning is higher than if it was drilled into the bumper but at least it will not be sticking way out. But, with these brackets you can lower it if you like. It'll just stick out more that's all.

    Did the guy with the 3rd Gen ever make it out? He's teasing us.

    Anyone having issues with this thing staying in or did I get a dud? I have lost my plate three times since installing this a year ago. Luckily, I've heard the plate hit the road each time and have been able to pull over and grab it but now I'm worried about losing it for good.

    Anyone else having these issues?

    It's Definitely good to know if anyone else is having the same problem after thousands of these sold. At the same time you can just easily reach out to us and we can figure out what's going on and easily replace your bracket if it's for some reason they're defective. If you like you can post a photo of the brakets here installed without the license plate on so we can see your setup.

    Also, you can contact us here: www.slybrackets.com/contact-us

    I'll take some pics and we can see if we can't figure out what's going on

    Hey, Bobby.

    I'd really like to help you out. We are still waiting for the pics of your slybracket set-up. And, we still did not get any response from anyone regarding issues with our license plate brackets. The same license plate brackets on my own truck are still on there for FOUR years now. We could not find your purchase and Order information in our system. Hope to hear from you soon.

    Please Contact us.

    Those are great photos. Very detailed.
    One on the left where the rubber part is touching the upper section of the lower grille seems short compare to the other bracket. We have since greatly improved the quality of the aluminum and the accuracy of each bracket's measurements. Please PM me with your address information so I can send you a brand new replacement asap. I truly apologize for the inconvenience.

    We are still working on it. Our BOZZmounts are the ones that will be compatible with 16-17's (already fully tested). You can check out some info here. BOZZmounts by SLYbrackets.

    I can test one for ya up here in the north east. Do you have an approximate time frame? I am going to keep searching, but would love to support someone that has a presence on TW.

    Edit: You should make one of those plastic things to cover the edge of the plate that has your logo and what not.
