Hey Troy, welcome back. We haven't had a chance to install the etrailer Invisible Base Plate Kit item # e44FV so the only picture I have is the one from the installation instructions. I have attached it below.

Have you gotten yours installed yet?

Just installed the diamond plate skid plate and there are no holes in the factory steel bumper for the front out two holes in the skid plate. You only have 3 in front and the two in back that match up???

@Troy Did you make the cuts in step 9 of the instructions? The bumper brackets in step 2B do not get reinstalled either. Additionally, the factory skid plate does not reinstall.

Thanks for your question, James. Both the etrailer #e98948 and Demco #DM9519336 base plates will have a very similar, low-profile look once they’re installed, so neither one really stands out more than the other. They’re both custom-fit for your…

Hi Sam, great questions! You are on the right track. The Blue Ox tow bars like part #BX7380 do not use a fully articulating head design the way some people initially expect, so keeping the tow bar as level as possible between the motorhome and towed…
