# Overview
This is a simple plug to cover up your 2" hitch receiver opening. It includes a simple pin and a face plate that you can customize and glue on to the plug face.
# The plug itself
This plug fits a 2" receiver. Print it with the flat face against your build plate. It can be used as-is if you do not want to customize a face plate.
You may want to use supports to prevent the holes from sagging.
# The improved plug
After driving my Subaru Crosstrek off-road a bit, I encountered a ditch where the lip of the original plug dragged and the whole face tore off. I redesigned it as the "improved plug" which has a smaller lip that does not overhang the receiver. It also has some minor reinforcement inside the tube. I included an improved face plate. Use this one if you plan to ever drive your vehicle off-road.
# The face plate
The face plate is optional but gives you a way to customize the hitch plug. Emboss or raise some text or an emblem on this plate, print it, then gl
