So im taking off my tire carrier and selling it, does anyone know of a plug kit? or something other than the existing screws that i can cover the hole with. i dont plan on taking it to a body shop to weld or anything so would like a different route. any help is appreciated

You might see if Home Depot or somewhere has chrome or black plated screws that will fit in place of the bolts and have a button or pan head to they fit flush and maybe a nylon or thin rubber washer to seal it.

Thanks for the info guys, yah im kinda hesitant to take it off... it's just someone offered me a pretty penny for the tire carrier which i thought was weird. so i will look into some sort of plug or something when i go to home depot. thanks again

There are stainless steel and plastic button hole plugs that you just push into a hole. You can find them at Lowes, Home Depot, and hardware stores in the hardware section.

Like these. Is this what you had in mind?
