Got the car tinted, installed some clear side markers and swapped in a flat hood emblem. Thanks to Arling and Tom at Lucent.

i was going to, but this dealer happened to use 4 screws instead of two to mount it. 4 plugs would look really odd and i don't want to patch and respray the whole bumper.

Mine has the plugs. Although I'd prefer a perfectly clean bumper, I don't mind them too much. I keep the plate in my windshield.

on my car, it's a pain. the fender liner had to be removed to get access to the light. on previous models, i think you can just pop the light from the outside.
