I just screwed mine right to the bumper then bent the plate in at the bottom. Looks more streamlined, got me 50hp, and raised my mpg's by 6.

You should drill some holes it; that should get you another 15HP and 3 MPG.

That might make it a little harder for the redlight and toll booth cameras to read

Do they read the front or the back?

You might have to mod the back to get the same effect, eh?

Maybe modding the back will give you more pullin' power?



Truthfully - the holes for the bracket are wider than the holes for the plate, so all you really need to do is get a piece of flat bar, make it long enough to pick up the holder holes, then drill the plate holes/countersink them, put the plate bolts in backwards and finish them off with a reflector nut, then mount up to the holder holes and bolt the entire thing up. Kind of one of those $1.98 jobs. If you wanted to be fancy, add a trim around the plate.

Lost one in Ohio, think it was a souvenir for someone. Bought another and drilled and filed the bumper to take anchors and screws in the lower holes. On real solid now.

No pictures. Just center punched the bumper with the plate holder held in place by the top 2 screws. Removed the holder and drilled holes in the bumper to match the width of the nylon anchors and squared the holes with a file. Put a little silicon seal on the exposed iron and popped the anchors in and remounted the holder. If you order the holder from one of the on-line Dodge parts sites holder will come with anchors and screws. Got one holder off e-bay and it didn't have the anchors with it. Hard time finding the right size (to match upper anchors). Also painted mine the same color as the truck. Sprayed it with an epoxy prep and paint in a rattle can. Local auto paint store mixed the spray paint.
