I am missing the front license plate bracket and what I need to know is where I can find one and how it attaches to the Splash Apron and I can't live with out it, it just wouldn't look right. Also I have a neat License plate topper for the Lidgerwood Fire Department original from 1950 it was my grandpas and considering he was on the fire department and so was my dad and I am too, I feel the need to put it on my truck. So if any of you have a source to get that bracket please tell and if you have pictures of how they go on or look attached I would appreciate it greatly thank you for you time

One thing to consider if you use the license plate topper is the weight of it plus the wind will make the plate bend over backwards as you're going down the road. Mine ended up scratching the grille and fender. I put a piece of aluminum plate behind the license plate to stiffen it up.
