I think it was a few years ago that in my G&D magazine there was an article about a way to mount a flag on your bumper without drilling holes in the splash pan . Does anyone have an idea? Happy Holidays

I made a bracket to fit under the middle bumper bolt on the '30...you didn't state what car you are interested in addind flags to, but if you don't have a middle bumper bolt, maybe there are other existing fasteners nearby that you could add a bracket to...that way, you wouldn't need to drill the splash pan...

good luck,

ok epi

You are right. My car is a 1947 1011.It was a bracket that bolted on the bumper I think. I dont remember what it was made of.

I have an outside visor on the 52, I insert the stem ends of the flags in the area between the roof and the visor and run them down along side the windshield. Works great, forgot them once at the end of a parade and drove highway speeds to dinner with several others and the hung in there all the way.
