Mounting Plate Bracket

Hi I need to put a plate bracket on my lightning bumper. What did you guys use for hardware to mount your plate. Thanks Justin.

There's a post kicking around here from last week (or so) that has a link to a couple a places to get them. They're crazy expensive from Ford (like 60.00).

Here you go

Self-tapping screws right into the bumper cover. There should be little "dimples" in the cover where the screws go.

Ya what he said (just oversized zip screws)

Holes look like this


OR NOT


if you DONT currently have holes I wouldnt put the plate there ???
I put a front temp plate on Blacky the day I got it inspected and I see no reason it cant stay there.
I just used two nylon zip thingy's that day but if it was going to be permanant you could mount it in the lower grill
no prob
