    my front license plate holder is the only thing on my runner that doesn't look new, its a bit bent, like it ran into a few things before it was put on my runner, and im pretty sure it doesn't even belong on a runner because it doesn't fit the grille mounting bolt holes.

    I would like to buy a new one that looks and fits well but it seems this is not an easy request.

    some jack leg drilled extra holes in my grille (twice :frustrated:) to mount the one I have now so just removing it and going without one isn't an opinion for me at this point.

    what have you guys found fits and works best for a front license plate holder?

    What kind of grille do you have? Why don't you post some pics so we know what we are dealing with here...

    If the holes for the grill are too big you can use a zip tie to fill in the space and it should hold you bolts pretty good. Works like a filler, it's an old carpentry trick but for a reamed out hole will work pretty good once you get the plate holder you need.

    thanks but the holes are fine, im trying to buy a new front license plate frame for it but no one knows the answer to which front license plate frames fit our trucks since Toyota doesn't list one anywhere for them
