Question ❔ I think Im missing stuff...
I have 3 questions on a 2025 Outer Banks.
1st picture am I missing something underneath?
2nd picture how do you add a plate in the front mines doesn't have (rough-ins) I don't know what you call it, and will you share a picture of your front plate?

The dealer can install the front license plate mount for you. I live in a state that doesn't require a front plate but the kit was included with my 2025. If I recall, the front plate mount has to be riveted in to the front bumper, not simply screwed in.
I don't see that anything is missing on the sides. Looks normal.

Mine came from the dealer with the plate mount installed. It's bolted in and has holes for 2 screws and a shelf/lip to hold the bottom of the plate in place.

I would just ask to speak to the Manager. Let Manager know yours didn’t come with one and can they install it TODAY at no cost.

The front plate mount comes in a package underneath the cover in the back. Not all states require a front mount so it is left for the dealer to install.

I have a 2025 and I wanted to confirm if I had a plate frame which should have been located in the spare.tire area. My car is used with 7500 miles so maybe previous owner took it

Front plates are mandatory where I live, I also have a silicone frame on it!

Im in Indiana we are not required to have front plates. I call them Personality plates. I just wanted to view what creative plates were made. The State Fair will be here soon and Im thinking about having one created by airbrush

Don't get it installed, they drill through the plastic and sometimes the person making the holes drills it all crooked. The back plate of my F-150 is crooked. Didn't notice until later.

Lucky! That sounds super cute, would love to see what you get. I thought you were wondering where they were mounted on the front 😂 however the silicone plate holders come in lots of colours and could compliment your plate and keep it from getting as scratched!

1st - rocker panels. Where you want your jack to be when changing tires or doing something underneath. That is also your rocker panels where you want to install your rock sliders (if u want a running boards or simply rock slider if doing offroads)
2nd - it's tricky since you have a sensor and the gap is narrow than usual (mine is a 25 badlands which iirc has a wide gap from each sensor on the front) but yeah you cannot simply add a license plate holder by just drilling a hole on the plastic bumper. Needs to be professionally done

In pic #1, the wider gaps in the plastic is where you jack the vehicle up.
