Well Im so pissed off about my front license plate, especially since I'm supposed to receive the HIboost fmic kit anytime soon. A long time ago some punk ass cop was following me hella late at night just waiting for me to fuck up or do somethin wrong. He couldn't find anything obviously and then pulled me over and gave me a fix it ticket on not having a front license plate. But here's the issue that I have; when i put it on there's holes that you must screw into right through the body. Now, if i want to take it off there's going to be too holes in my paint. (argh) It didn't occur to me how much this depresses me until I wanted to take it off so as to not block off the fmic coming in. Any suggestions anyone?

Make your own bracket to hold your plate on using support from some other place.

Uh, just get the holes filled and your bumper repainted. It's no big deal. You make it seem catastrophic, like all the Internet pr0n in the world just up and vanished.

Kleenex and Lubriderm would go out of business. I'd have to dump my shares real quick.

my front bumper holes have two flat black hex head bolts, and you can't tell they're there against my black bumper... maybe another color bolt wouldn't look so bad against your spicy orange bumper

or just put some ricer LED lights in the holes

get some pop ins like for interior panels and hit them up with some touch up paint

That a good idea since i'm already going with a black/orange type thing. I have black limo tints, black rims, black apexi exhaust (soon to be) , black accessories, and then maybe black flat bolts.

go to your auto parts store and tell em you want some plastic interior panel "pop ins". he'll have several sizes to choose from, put some paint on em and you're good to go!
