    FS: Front License Plate Fillers for Diving Board Aluminum Bumpers

    Front license plate fillers for aluminum bumpers now available.

    I found a way to make a filler piece that look pretty nice. I experimented with a few different options. Seems like this works the best.

    These can be installed with the bumper still on the vehicle but definitely easier to install with bumper off


    Currently not available, please PM me if interested


    Here’s a few photos of the filler installed.

    You can't get the piece to sit more flush?

      I’ll work on it and see if there’s room for adjustment

          Right. I think it also has to do with the way the factory plastic has that kink in the middle and his filler has a rounder shape to it.

          I think the last guy who was making these stopped production on them, is what I heard from my buddy with an early model

          So there is a market for this, just wanted to give my 2 cents

              yes, i'm using the same materials as the ones seen on this thread here from 2015.

              It is a rubber filler piece as compared to the plastic trim on the left and right sides.

              I have one of the original plastic filler pieces that were available a while back, it has a ridge where the materials meet as well, as seen here

                I have my old corner trims and old rear strip. I'm gonna play around with them and try to make my own but if I get aggrevated (almost guaranteed) I'll grab one of these haha
