Installing Rear License Plate Retataining Clips On 2014 Ram
If you buy your new car off the lot, or you purchase a used car in a state that requires front license plate tags, and your home state doesn't, you'll often find that the dealer or previous owner required that a front license plate bracket be installed.
While the need for these is perfectly understood, (state or local laws), they can be annoying if your state doesn't require them, or you don't care to root for a football/baseball team, driving around with the dealers 'complimentary vanity plate' advertising their dealership all over the place, or just have a blank license bracket.
The problem that many people have to deal with is that is when they go to remove the front bracket they find that the dealer/previous owner drilled two to four holes into the front bumper to get that license plate bracket on.
You could take the car to a body shop and spend $200+ on bodywork to have the holes covered up, or you can spend $20 and do what I did.
In this Instructable I'll show you how to cheaply, easily and tastefully get rid of the front license plate bracket and fill in the holes that our friends at the dealership have made. It's not a complete smooth cover up, but you will barely notice it.
NOTE: I take no responsibility for damage to your car. If you are uncomfortable doing this Instructable, have a friend who is well versed in tools do it for you, or don't do it at all&
