Front plate relocation

I just installed a bull bar on my 2007 F250. But the front plate is covered. I would like to relocate the front licence place due to the local laws. How have some of you guys accomplished this and still make it look good.

When I had a bull bar on my Bronco I moved it over to one side. Two other things I have seen done but wouldn't recommend or sure if legal are a guy bent his around the middle of the lower bar and riveted it in place so that it was wrapped around the bar. You could still read it and it didn't look that bad. Another truck the guy hung his from under the bumper on a piece of rubber so that it would flex when needed to.

Do you have a valance under your bumper could you mount it to that?


Every time I see your avatar I start staring at it and almost forget to read the post. The Dodge line in your signature almost cost me a new keyboard do to flying coffee.

I got to be honest with you, both the avatar and the tag line have been hi-jacked from somewhere else. I likes them both.....so I had to have them.
