    20250731_154633.jpgAny of you guys have any ideas to cover up this scuffed up area where the front plate was. Louisiana doesn't require a front plate and I'd like to go without one if possible

    A man after my own heart. Go big or go home!

    Get all of it. Suspension, Tires, Wheel, Bumper, Skid Plates, Lights (but not raptor!), hell...maybe even a slight lift and some new Ceramic tint.

    Fill the holes with sealant, then cover the area with a large decal of your choice (TRD, gun brand, sports team, gay pride, whatever)
