My long awaited Heritage Bronco is at the dealership. My dealer mentioned the front license plate bracket on the Heritage Bumper has to be mounted a bit different. I remember reading a comment about it, and of course now I can't find it. Does anyone have a suggestion on a front bumper bracket that doesn't have to be drilled through the metal? I don't want to mess up her front side!

I bought the DV8 mount for our Heritage. It should work, I haven't installed it yet since the dealer f'd up and installed/drilled the OEM bracket into the painted part below the grill. Now I have to re-do the PPF and install color matched bumper plugs.

Ugh! Thank you for the information.

I’ll look into that DV8!

Builtright industries also has relocation kits for standard, capable, and modular bumpers. That's who I used for mine that offsets the plate to the side of my bumper.

This One might work for you. Feel free to read this long thread about it if you want more info.

To buy one, click here before they sell out. (I just bought one for my Heritage. Hasn't arrived yet. Hoping it feels snug without having to drill or loosen bash plates.)

I put one of these on my Badlands capable bumper a couple of years ago. It has been holding in place ever since with no problems

My Heritage Limited had the same thing and I thought they would have been the only idiots to do that. Guess not.

Currently trying to figure out the best way to fix it. Any suggestions?

I just installed this on my 2023 with a plastic bumper. Easy. No drilling. Removed 2 existing bolts and on it goes!

Interesting observation on your bumper. When I removed my front plate holder I noticed 1. The screw holes in the painted area 2. The weird defect on the top area of the bumper which was behind the plate holder. The defect on yours is identical to mine. This definitely occurred pre-delivery to me and would only be noticeable if I had removed the plate holder at the time of delivery. Manufacturing defect in the powder coating process?

I bought color matched plugs from bumperplugs.com. The Robins Egg cost more, they make you buy 4 plugs due to the cost of making them (I emailed and confirmed this). I haven't tried them yet, waiting to get that piece re-ppf'd since the ppf shop stopped the ppf at the license plate bracket. So, it's been the gift that keeps on giving.

Worked great on my previous ‘23 BD and now on my ‘24 Heritage.
