Getting close to finishing my rear bumper. Anyone have any advice on other things to do to it? Pics for bonus points
My first thought was the license plate. Cops may not like it hidden under the bumper and hitch. If you mount it to the top left of the hitch, sticking up, you could kill two birds with one stone: keep the cops away, and it would cover up the dent in the tailgate.
Seriously, is it a 4WD? Are you worried about approach angle from the rear? If not, you could weld a couple half inch rectangle studs on the bottom, drill them first, and put a couple of shackles there.
You could drill three-quarter inch holes in the bumper, and put in some the hi lo marker lights?
Are you going to match it on the front?
You can buy some of the self stick, diamond plate treads, black rubber, trim them to the top width’s of the bumper, and put them on the top.
Also, you could hang your license plate off the bottom on a couple of S hooks, so it wobbles back-and-forth, and then just use an LED strip across the bottom of the bumper to light it.
Maybe a color scheme and some matching mudflaps like my junk pile…
