Has anyone tried mounting their front plate....

...using the threaded tow hook receiver. I was thinking of mocking something up using a long bolt or threaded rod and a cross bracket to hold/stiffen the plate. Double nut it so I could remove it when not worried about the roving eyes of the law. Before I went crazy coming up with something, I thought I'd check with the experts....

I think there was a post several months ago about someone losing their front plate that way?

Hmmm... I've never had a problem with mine even at 100+ on the track.

I looked at it and didn't want to have a hole in my lower grill mesh. Made this instead......>
