Tail gate spare tire bracket cover
I am installing a new LOD G-II rear bumper with tire carrier. Is there a cover to go over the holes and bolts where the stock tire carrier was located on the tail gate?

i installed a rockhard rear and when i finished I just re-installed the factory bolts from the tire carrier back into those holes. But someone does make a cover.

I have had a tire carrier and rear bumper for a while now. I too put the bolts back in the holes BUT the rubber stops on the gate dont match up with my tire carrier. I pulled one off and there is a huge hole there so they are still there serving no purpose (other than plugging the holes). Does anyone know where to find a plug that will fit those 2 holes?

I went to Tap plastics and had a black texured panel made for about $5. They made it and rounded the corners so it fit perfect. Double stick tape it on and it looks great. I will post some pics tomorrow.

PSC makes the "Tramp Stamp" to cover the vent area. You can use nylon hole plugs from Lowes for the brakelight wiring holes. The PSC cover is $49 in raw metal. If you run spareless, you can mount a license plate to it.
