I was considering that, but the bar would be way to visible. Since theres a gap between the cooler and the fascia.

And there is a cheaper one out there, but don't remember.

Well I had to be the cool guy in town.

If I did it in the middle, it would restrict some air flow.

Yeah, when I first saw it from far away, I was not feeling it either. But it grew on me.

I never liked it the stock position. Plus me and my friend goes to a lot of car meets where people take pics. And down here, cars get stolen often. So this way I can hide my license plate instead of it looking tacky. I did it for some reasons.

Looks good, personally I woulda put it in the center. But how sturdy is it? Have you driven around with it up and has it folded down on you? Right now I have the SS/TC lower grill in and bent the bottom of my plate and zap strapped it to the grill, looks good but looks even better without a plate. I'll post a pic one of these days. Just think this would look a lot better. U just screwed it to your bumper? post some mounting pics if poss too!
