usnmustang Posted February 12, 2009 #1 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 #2 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 #3 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 #5 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...
