I picked up this cheap license plate mount at my local automotive store. I cut off the top 1 inch of the bracket. Drilled a 3/8 inch hole 1 inch from the top. Well after drilling a hole a half inch from the top and finding that it blocked the radar device. Then bent the bracket so it was level.

I think it's an improvement

Now I know this will get it the way while rock crawling but for New England off roading near me it will be fine.

Looks good, bonus for cheap and easy fix.

I was thinking about doing something similar since I have a fab/welding shop and just building my own bracket. I have plenty of scraps laying around and the modular bumper has plenty of screws for me to figure out something.

I wish I knew how to weld! List of things to learn.

Looks good, glad to see I'm not the only one who makes their own parts for mods.

Nice solution! The stock location looks rough. Is it just dirty or is it scratched up?
