You are going to post pics when this is all done right???

As far as the tag goes, I don't think the front bumper comes pre-drilled with mounting holes. The dealership puts it on and most likely eyeballs it when they do. The only thing you need to be concerned about is if the old holes will be visible when you reposition the tag. It would suck to have to patch and paint just to move a tag.

Do you think I would wait that long to post photos? Start photos. Next comes photos after moving the front personalized plates up a inch. I think the front bumper had bumps to show the dealer were to mount the plates.

There is a hot and air quality warning for this area. Today I went out and bought the Bell back plates, Custom Cruiser security screws with black screw covers. By the time I got back it was too hot to move the plates.

I may be able to reuse the old holes to mount Bell's back mount plate. The old holes will be covered up. Hopefully Bell's back mount plate will prevent salt build up behind the personalized plates. The old front plate had stuff built up behind the tag causing rust.
