I would install w/nut/lock washer to the inside using an open end wrench.

I'm sure you don't take the hitch on-off every day, so that wouldn't be too much of an aggravation, but it would do the trick.

p.s..... you could even get black hardware, so they would barely be noticable...
If I understand your approach, you are semi-permanently installing the SuperBumper in the receiver with the hitch removed from the vehicle & then installing the hitch/SuperBumper. Izzat true?

If so, won't work for Sue's application.

1. SuperBumper must be allowed to slide within the receiver (that's what absorbs the impact in the case of a rear collision).

2. To properly install a SuperBumper, the rubber bump stops inside the tube will be pressing on the receiver pin (or in this case, the nut/bolts you mentioned). You wouldn't be able to get a wrench on it.
