Travis hit the nail on the head! Consider using the oversize ribbed aluminum riv-nuts from McMaster Carr and you won't have to do any fiberglass work. That is what we do in the shop as it saves time and is stronger than the original riv-nut. BTW David jack-nuts are used for the rear license plate but aren't really suitable for fiberglass work. Now a question for you David..who is Mr. G anyway :-) ?
