Much better. I like the bag further down. License plate looks great!!! I did something similar with my Jeep TJ. Removed the license plate bracket, drilled the tub, and rounded the plate around the rear corner. Your plate reminded me of that.

I don't know if this is true or not,but I was told that in Ohio the plate has to be upright and readable from behind.Seeing that yours is mounted sideways you might get pulled over here.

Rusty, it could be a bad angle in the picture, I had my buddy rode behind me to see the lights and he said they were fine, not blocked. After I find a way to cover the 3 old plate bracket holes, I might put it back behind the seat. You never know! [8D]
