I have never had anything on my truck other than what Chevy put there in 1948. That little bracket that bolts to the appron, a regular license plate with a chrome frame bolted to it. It has never bent one little bit. I personally think you couldn't make one of these trucks go fast enough to make the wind bend it. I think someone has been bending the plate for you smile
