Mine doesn't have holes but they do have little dimples where you are supposed to drill the holes at.

as long as there are no holes. my bumper is really screwed up anyways. I was going way to fast into a turn locked my brakes and lightly tapped a guardrail on the exact center of the bumper. snapped 3 of the tabs. I was sooo damn lucky on that one. I think that was the last time I drove it before putting up.

holes are put into the front bumper at the dealer. so if your car was originally purchased in a state that has no front plates there will be no holes. or if you happen to grab the car when it was coming off the truck.

mine was bought in michigan so had no holes. was a great excuse once when i got pulled over in texas for not having a front plate. got away with it.

Sorry to bump the thread here but mine has the little dimples and I want to put a front plate on my car (a Miami U. mirrored vanity). However, the holes on the plate don't match up to the dimples. WTF?

You have to get the Plate frame that mounts to the car....I have an extra if you want it...I just have to find it.
Then the plate mounts to it..Its a plastic bracket.
No clue how much from the dealer it is..but I am sure its not cheap.
LMK via PM if you want it.
