usnmustang Posted February 12, 2009 Posted February 12, 2009 I am looking to remove my passenger floor boards as I don't see being 2 up any time soon (wife isn't into riding) and I was wondering if anyone has figured out a plug to cover the holes that would be left behind. I know there is a chrome piece to fit in place of the black cover that has chrome plugs but my RSTD is a midnight and I would like to leave the black cover and find some kind of plug in black. Any thoughts or ideas?
pegscraper Posted February 12, 2009 Posted February 12, 2009 You might go to a hardware store and look for some plastic hole plugs. They come in various sizes, and usually in black.
LetHimRide Posted February 12, 2009 Posted February 12, 2009 find some nice shiney chrome thingeee, drill two holes that line up and bolt it on...My favorerrret color is chrome!
bongobobny Posted February 14, 2009 Posted February 14, 2009 You could buy some short bolts of the right thread (Lowes is a pretty good source of metric bolts) and then also buy a can of gloss black paint while you're there. When you get home find a piece of cardboard and make some holes in it and put the bolts in the hole to just expose the heads. Then proceed to paint the bolt heads a nice shiny black. Let dry a few days and then carefuly screw in. You may want to consider some loctite so you don't have to torque them so hard and wreck your paint job.. Viola, a nice custom job that will look stock...
