Jim,

I noticed your hitch under your rear bumper what type is it and how is it mounted?

This plate is 13"x 5" as opposed to a modern 12X6". If I could find some other place to mount the tag, I'd wack it tommorrow. The extra 1" of length precludes it from mounting in an underlight holder.

I know this thread is old, but I wish I had known this before ordering the bumper and snugger brackets.

Another lesson learned, always check FTE before buying!

Oh!! My Lord. Black is so beautiful. That was the original paint on my Uni.
I hope to get Her back to that one day. "Black is beautiful" And I'm a white guy. GF is black though. Hey it works for us.

Really though all jokes aside it takes a lot of body and prep work to get a decent black paint job.
