Front license plate relocation kit

DatOleMan · Aug 17, 2024

I added a toe hook mounted license plate bracket. I didn’t want holes drilled into my front bumper. Doesn’t interfere with sensors.

That's the way to do it. I moved from Texas (a 2 plate state) to Michigan (1 plate state) and removed it. Glad I didn't drill holes in my truck.

That being said, I have an extra Mishimoto kit I would sell on the cheap for someone in need.

Is that Mishimoto kit you’re talking about the original front plate bracket/frame?
If so, I’d be interested since I cracked mine in an unfortunate encounter with a low pole at Home Depot parking lot about a year ago.
please let me know.
Thanks.

Yes, it's the exact kit on the link OP posted.

I am loving that light bar tint against the white paint.

I used this one from Ford:

Let me know if you want it, I have someone else showing interest. I'll sell it for 40 plus shipping. (Probably 20-30 dollars)

Hey Kenny,
I'll take it, but could you please send me a picture of it just to make sure it's the same I have?
You can text me directly at (914) 906-0181.

Thank you,

If you are looking for the original OEM license plate bracket, I have one new and unused for a 2023 Lightning you can have for the cost of shipping. This will be one that requires holes in the bumper to mount.

What Ken has is a very nice choice, but if you already have holes in the bumper then it may not be what you need. I can send pics tomorrow if needed

Good morning Frank,
You're totally right, just exchanged messages with Ken and his bracket is different than mine. I'm attaching pictures of mine here, and if yours is the one I need, I'll be glad to pay you for it. Please text me a picture of yours at (914) 906-0181 and I'll send you my address.
Thank you and have a great day...
Oh well! I've tried many times to upload the pictures I took but it didn't work and it didn't give me an error message. Perhaps the file is too large?!?! I can text you the pics...

Thanks in advance, and have a great day...
Marcelo

That's super cool! And that is a beautiful F-150 Lightning! Thanks for sharing.

Did the Snap Plate . Worked just fine . And can be removed at anytime. Now I did modify the Grill Guard to fit Snap Plate from Every Amp

Looking good. Adding grill mesh is my next project.
