Modified the Moweraxle.com front plate tow-hook bracket to get it centered on the bumper.

Wanted to satisfy the Texas front plate requirement, but hated the off-center tow-hook plate brackets.

Removed the black trim cover that exposes the tow-hook attachment hole. Attached an aluminum bar (painted black to hide piece) with a wall anchor through the drilled hole and through tow-hook hole. Drilled 24mm hole through tow-hook mounting stud behind plate bracket. Attached two 22mm washers on either side of aluminum bar. Secured aluminum bar to tow hook stud with 24mm hex bolt. Tied back and secured plate bracket with two industrial strength zip ties to keep plate from any fore/aft movement. Fixed two clear self-adhesive rubber chair pads between plate bracket and black bumper trim.
