Looks great Don! Does your commander ever fly out of the holder when you accelerate quickly? I had an issue with that when I used a holder similar to that.

Thanks. No, mine has foam grips on the wings that hold the commander pretty securely.

EDIT: I forgot to mention, I superglued the wings to the size of the commander so it could not be adjusted. I clamped them snugly around the commander then glued, so that may be another reason it stays put.

Thanks. The plateless bumper didn't fit very well and from what I've read, none of the aftermarket bumpers fit as well as OEM, so I went with a stock 99 spec. Honestly, at first, I hated the plated bumper but it has grown on me. I still have the plateless one as a wall ornament in my garage.
