Default Custom Hitch Cover Plate...Pics!

Okay well you might of seen my thread a bit ago for a cover plate for that ugly hitch when you have a body lift. Well Ricer hooked me up.

He cut and bent some diamond plate and I sprayed it today. Two self tappers into the bumper and some foam tape between the two (for a cleaner look) for a total install time of 7 minutes

I think it looks great, and really cleans up the back. After Rubberfrogs post on DT with some LED reverse lights in a strip around the hitch, I am thinking about putting some going up the sides and tapped into my reverse lights. Well any of you with a body lift (even if you have the plastic PA piece) this would be a great add on!

I can't believe Les Miles stayed at LSU with the Michigan job open! Felt for sure he'd jump to his alma mater.

Oops, sorry, the plate bracket sidetracked me.... Cover looks good...

Good work Ricer, plate looks great. You should go around selling those to other BL guys.
