I don't do things very well

I'll give it another go with this one.

Taking the bumper up to triple C shop next week to have a couple nuts welded on the flat part so I can mount my license plate



I thought about just not running one but I'd rather not hassle with being pulled over.

 

Neither do I but I stay with it. Why not use some magnets for it? I have that on mine super solid hold.

 

That's what I was going to recommend. It will hold it on there for sure.

 

What kind of magnets?

 

I have to use both hands to pull it off been thru whoops, high pressure car washes, an a few 85mph plus runs no issue. Four (4) Magnetic License Plate Holders, Magnet, Tag, Plate, Test Drive, Dealer

Thanks man, I guess I could do that.

Think it'll scratch the paint at all?

 

No hasn’t on mine plus you can give plates a jaunty tilt. Just took my plates off where fairlead hole is at some bugs no scratches.

 

Thanks dude!!! I'll need to decide what to do now lol.

Is the general consensus to use the magnets or weld some nuts on?

 

Most use zip ties or magnets

 

Alrighty. Probably just order the magnet dealys then.

 

I have a spare set just for one plate. You can have it

 

Hard drive magnets. They'll survive hurricanes and not budge.

 

Oh cool!!! Was just looking and found these 'rubber coated'

Nice ..the ones I got have foam an rubber on the back side

 

Very nice. I'm torn between permanent mounts or removable....

 

Plate theft is what I would worry about...

 

borrow the magnets see how you like them, then decide

 

Both are easy to take magnets a little easier ..zip ties a biotch

 

If I do the magnets, the bumper is ready for paint.

If I weld on nuts, it'll need to be done next week before painting

 

morning all no it's not just coffee
