I took off my front license plate holder, and the holes looked just as bad as the license plate holder. I thought about little spikes, but my truck just doesn't convey spikes, so I found these LED bolts.

 

was your license plate holder pop riveted on?

 

Yeah.

 

ok. so im not the only one. i noticed that mine was pop-riveted on and i thought the previous owner did it.

 

should have put spikes lol

 

Yeah, Ford doesn't like to get carried away. And spikes maybe if it was lifted.

 

Should of just left them out

 

I'm still thinking about it. These stick out a little farther then I thought they would, I'm thinking a week will let me chose if I like them or hate them.

 

It just seems like those lighted wiper sprayers to me, I'm not a fan. But hey its your truck

 

+1 ditch em

 

Get some pics at night.

 

y does it matter it just 2 little holes

 

I dont like em but good luck with your decision!

 

wired into the directional?

 

isn't a front license plate a requirement in wisconsin? wait, don't answer... Yes, it is... good luck explaining to the cop why your front plate is gone and two LED bolts are in it's place.

 

Wired into the park lights.

 

bondo, sandpaper and paint.

 

yuck imo. when I still had chrome on the front, and i ditched the front plate, I used stainless allen bolts....looked good.

 

Interesting.

 

I just did mine, but I sanded it down to bare metal, welded the holes in and then filled them with dolphin-glaze filler, primed it, put down 4 layers of color, and 3 layers of clear. As soon as the paint is cured I'll install the bumper and take some pics.

 

they make chrome in a paint now?


i just left mine has holes, primed the backside and the width of the metal so that it wont rust as fast

 

i left the rivets in mine for a long time.

 

Edges have painted bumpers...

 

Resurrected...I removed them finally. I liked their little bit of amber light, but they stuck out to far. Then I put a Hunter bull bar on...and that sticks out way too far...all of that just to find I like stock better.

 

how about filling the holes with some silver shell casings from a 9mm or 45?
