DV8 Offroad Bronco Capable Bumper Slanted Front License Plate Mount

The DV8 Offroad Slanted Front License Plate Mount is a bolt-on steel bracket for 2021–2026 Ford Bronco owners running the factory OEM Capable Steel Front Bumper. It repositions the license plate to the center of the bumper below the grille, clearing the grille opening for maximum airflow and giving the Capable bumper an unobstructed appearance. The bracket is built from 3.5mm steel plate with a micro-texture black powder coat finish and installs using factory hardware in an estimated 30 minutes.

Clearance Where It Counts

The bracket mounts the license plate at a steep slant rather than flat against the bumper face. That angle keeps the plate from catching on terrain when the Bronco crests a steep climb, reducing the risk of the plate snagging on rock or trail debris. For more demanding trails where any protrusion is a liability, the bracket removes in minutes without tools, so the plate comes off before the run and goes back on after.

Airflow and Aesthetics Without Compromise

Moving the license plate away from the grille opening lets the engine compartment breathe as the factory bumper was designed to allow. The relocation also exposes the full face of the Capable Steel Bumper, which is otherwise partially blocked when the plate sits in the stock position. The bracket is positioned so it does not interfere with the factory fog lights.

Straightforward Bolt-On Installation

The mount uses factory hardware already on the Capable bumper, so no drilling or additional fasteners are required. DV8 Offroad estimates installation at approximately 30 minutes, though time will vary depending on experience. An install guide is available from DV8 Offroad for reference.
