the frame cost $4.95 not the die grinder LOL. I broke two frames since they get thin when making the modification. So it really took 3 frames. I have to admit it looked fantastic when I was done, Thank God i taped the trunk with blue tape, i did use a dremel tool to cut the bolts so the cap would snap over. The dremel tool bit the stud and wrapped around and skidded across my tape, i put blue tape down first and then duct tape on top of the blue tape. If not my trunk paint would have been shot. Since I had no threads sticking out of the nut, i put a drop of locktight on the nut so it would not back off and allow the screw head to scracth the paint. I hope the person I sold it too never has to change licence plates!!
