Default New license plate bracker, or a mod

I abosutly hate that the rim on the rear tire carrier is covered up by a nasty piece of plastic. I have been thinking of buying another cover off ebay and trying to cut it up to look nice. Anyone else tried it, or came up with a good mod?

I purchased a license plate bracket that attaches lower right to the tow hook mount, and removed the rear tire carrier license plate holder.

Note that you have to cut the center portion of the existing license plate holder in order to place a Hummer "hub cap" on the rear mounted tire.

I was going to do it myself, but the dealership had it done for me in 15 minutes.

Looks great now with a rear-mounted tire with "hub cap" and a license plate lower right.
