I've got the brawler lite with their synthetic line fairlead. Where do I mount a front license plate? If you have pics or ideas please post.

I just zip tied mine to the holes in the bottom of the bumper(Top of the plates) and to the crash bar(bottom of the plates).

Its at a severe angle but I've had no trouble with the police and its pretty solid so it shouldn't fall off.. especially since I used two zipties in each hole.

I did the same with mine however I just drilled 5/8 hole and tightened it down with some bolts. It's all the same really

Nope, my bumper had holes for me to bolt my front plate to it. Saw that on quadratec while looking for something else a while ago.

Mine is zip tied to the grill. I've had no problems but its a PITA when I cross the border because there camera doesn't read it. Then they ask my plate number which I can't seem to memorize.

I'm running it. It's the best thing ever. The look is clean and the winch is easily accessible.

With the plate:

Thanks a lot guys. I really appreciate the help here. Been really busy with preparing for a move (to a front plate state). Thank you.

I wonder why Poison spyder does not have an option. There Fairlead is pretty cool with the logo on it, hate to cover it up.

Not sure if you have their front skid. If so, you could drill and tap for bolts to mount to. Or you could just drill and use a nut on the backside.
