I am so sorry! WTF is that?! It's still a beautiful car. Any idea what's going on? Did they have euro plates? I have never understood why anyone would ever put a license plate on the front of a performance car. Could be time for a GT3 bumper?!

My salesman handed me my front plate and told me to put it in the trunk. It's been there for nearly 3 years now. I find it hard to believe a dealer did that to your car.

Temporarily put in (6) plugs until you decide to go w/ another bumper (stock or GT3 clone).
It'll look better than a) the holes or b) the license plate.
It'll just be (6) pimples on your bumper.

Have you taken this back to the person who sold it to you? I would put a Gt3 bumper except I am very picky about being consistent and placing the full kit and on the C4S I prefer the Techart (type 1) . . One can even do the front vent and inserts . In carbon on the seal great it would look real nice with aset of brushed wheels and lowered suspension. This is my taste. Gorgeous!!!!

I would go back to the dealer and say that this was a "hidden" problem with the car as you couldn't reasonably find it or expect to find it when you bought the car.
The dealer owes you a new bumper. Are front plates required in your state? If they are, you might get some pushback for that reason. But you don't "have" to use the front plates, so I'd push hard on this.
