Front plate holes

I have 4 small holes in my front bumper that I want to plug, but the top 2 are where the nose starts curving toward the hood. I dont see ahything on bumper plugs to fit this. Any fixes for this other than bodywork, which is out of the question!

I have 4 holes too. Looks horrible. I ordered bumper plugs, but haven't put them in yet because that requires enlarging the holes. I might see if a body shop could fill and then paint the holes which I'm sure would look better than it does now.

The other side to this is how do you find the Police harassment? I live in 2 very affluent towns that the cops thrive off of traffic violations, because thankfully it is all to worry about here. I was pulled over by a cop driving the other way, because he saw my inspection was expired in my Roush! I might just put it back on the avoid the bs. Is it a moving violation in ny, I have to go on the dmv to look.

it is a violation and $75 fine I believe not to have front plate on. get tow hook based one - it is simple and keeps front bumper virgin.

If you live in NY, or some other state that requires front plates and you already have the holes, Why in heavens name are you trying to eliminate the front plate holes..They are already there....Just suck it up, put the front bracket back on and be done with it!!!!
I have 2 I can give you if you need one!!

I liked the "magnet" version that justatoy was working on - but that solution required some serious desire and commitment.

Thanks Guys!
It actually isn't that hard at all.....and the plate HAS NOT come off at speeds yet,LOL!!!
It hasn't even left a mark on the bumper either...I love this mod....makes it easy to pull the plate off and wax the front bumper.
