Guys with front plates

[Tinman454]

Watched a video the other day of a new power wagon on truck king. As he’s a fellow Canadian and also lives in my province of Ontario. We have front license plates. He was of course showing off the truck on old logging roads and just regular mild trails. The exact type of stuff I would do nothing too crazy. Well even just doing that little bit he ripped off the front plate they didn’t get it on camera but we’re lucky enough to see it and find the plate. So my question is how many guys remove the bumper skirt and if you have re located the front license plate we’re did you re mount it ? In the pic you can clearly see how easy it is to rip it off. Any help is appreciated thanks.

You can buy or make a flip up plate holder that attaches to fairlead

Yup, I did the same thing. I don't have my real plates yet, but in Colorado, we are supposed to run a front plate.
When I was reading the instructions for the CJC intercooler guard, it said to remove the OEM holder and use the plastic inserts found at any auto parts store to mount a plate using the existing holes.

Mine was removed by going through a steep drop to another road. When I was looking at how to mount the plate differently, I found the CJC instructions.

I kinda did this same thing.

I lost my front plate in the forest on some muddy trails. Went back the next day, and actually found it.

I tossed the stupid plastic holder away, and just mounted the plate directly to the front bumper using some S/S bolt with nylock nuts.

The only benefit is that if you hit something, or drag the front bumper, the plate will bent, and tweak. Rather than just falling off. lol.
