    I think you'll find that both front and back secure with bolts on lower lip.

    This should hold securely.. I've seen it work!
    And..I've seen it with exposed 'all round' bolts either "cosmetic'..or into actual cladding.

    And back has 5 pre existing bolt holes under lower lip ( 4 if you have hidden hitch!)...
    ...that can be used.

    I've seen these used 'only'..and these plus upper lip 'exposed' bolts....
    ..either cosmetic or into cladding.


    Kats pics show the detail really well.

    So we agree that regardless of whether you go with exposed cosmetic bolts or drilled-into-cladding bolts on the top of the plates you still need 2 bolts for the license plate area, 2 bolts for the lower front cladding, and 4/5 bolts for the lower rear cladding right? If so wouldn't every buyer need those bolts? What I'm telling you is I have bolts, washers, and nuts that are exactly the right length, thread, and pitch for all those holes.

    Ah OK..I'm a little slow today!

    I thought you were talking 'cosmetic' cut studs/bolts...my bad

    Given I've already shipped all but a couple of secondary orders...
    .. not sure I'm the right guy to send them to now.

    Silly to ship to me..then I ship to end user from here anyway.

    Really appreciate the help/offer though
