Photo of Hitch Panel Trimmed on 2020 GMC Acadia With Draw-Tite Hitch

Question

Question:

I am leaning towards the Draw-tite hitch for my 2020 GMC Acadia, but have a question regarding trimming of the fascia cover. It looks to me like the cover gets trimmed only from the bottom, and with the cover put back on the hitch is mostly concealed. I really would like to continue using the fascia cover, as the hitch will be used pretty sparingly, but want to make sure it will in fact go back on and still look factory when looking at the vehicle from the rear. I see pictures of the fascia cover on with the Curt hitch, but none with it put back on with the Draw-tite hitch. Its hard to tell what the finished product looks like because they skipped the trimming section in the video. If you have a picture of what it looks like on a 2020 Acadia installed and fascia re-installed I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks!

The Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver part # 76023 is a great option for a 2020 GMC Acadia. The hitch knockout panel can be re-installed with the hitch in place but it must be trimmed in order to do so. I have attached a photo below which shows what it will look like once trimmed and re-installed.

If you were to use the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver part # C13293, the hitch knockout panel would be re-installed but with no trimming required.

The primary difference between the two is the height of the receiver tube once the hitch is installed. Both hitches use a crossbar that tucks up behind the bumper fascia for a clean looking installation but the Draw-Tite #76023 will sit higher up on…
