We don't know anybody locally that have that Tire Carrier.

If you want, try to look behind your tire carrier and see if the upper tailgate holes clear the tire carrier tubes (Send pictures if you can). I think, we could make something custom for you that anybody else could benefit from it.

Any chance of either a calico jack pirate or the full cobra symbol plate?

With a a few mods, it is possible; I like them, both. Keep in mind, these are cut out, not floating metal is possible.

Which would you prefer?

CB Antenna + Light Bracket Design

All,

Here is the new CB antenna bracket design. It will allow you to mount CB antenna and aux light (Optional. if you don't have anything that would interefere on the back of your rig). It would be posible to use it on any corner tail gate's bolt pattern

I am leaning towards the cobra symbol, mainly bc i'm not sure what the skull would look like with the floating eyes and nose. I know you would have to support them somehow and that might ruin the look. Any thoughts?

The other option I also considered was the following, but I wasn't certain if y'all can do school logos:

If you guys can do schools logo's i'd be interested in the Ohio State logo.

Nice product and I like the CB antenna mount.

Now, at the risk of being mundane and practical....any chance of a license plate mount or holes for a license plate?

Got my JKO Plate in and it looks GREAT. I've painted the screen mesh Detonator Yellow so it matches my Jeep. At least for the short term I know I am running a one of a kind Tailgate Plate!

Thanks Desert Snake

We can make almost any design, the problem is the copyright.

Our lawyer has advised us to refrain from coying or transferring any registered logo into any of our products.

Because we don't like to say no with out another option, we could make a flat plate where you would be able to place any school decal. Moreover, we could create another layer on top of the plate with the sticker layout for a 3D effect.

All these requests will be custom orders.

Not sure I follow what you mean with the 2nd layer? Do you have a visual example?

I am thinking

I think he is talking about making the outside perimeter of the decal a plate to achieve the 3-D look over his flat plate design ...


?????

Can you do one in stainless stell?
2nd question:how come I can't open your website?
3rd question:are you planing on making a 3rd brake light bracket that attaches to the plate?
some advice:you should have the option of a rubber liner that goes between
the plate and the tailgate,kind like poison spyder with the side armor that thing saved my body(geniuses)
thanks

A: Our plates come standard with rubber strips to separate the plate from the tail gate, this way we avoid scratching the paint on the tail gate.


I hope this answers your questions boss

Sneak pic only for you

These are prototypes

We were able to sink the Powerplant a few inches down, between the frame rails, for better airflow to the engine. We won't sell the light bar, it is a pain to make



On this one, our logo will be replaced by a design to incorporate LEDs
