I decided to make a quick write up about filling in the holes in your front bumper if your dealer put a plate in.
I know there is www.bumperplugs.com, but I couldn't see spending that much when it could be done for much cheaper.
What you need:
Drill
1/4" Drill bit
Spray Paint
Panel Retainers
The panel retainers can be picked up at your local automotive store.
I picked up Chrysler, Ford, GM retainers by Dorman.
These looked like they would work the best, but there are other sizes to choose from.
First, spray paint the plugs to the color of your vehicle, I used Cardinal Red Dupli-Color for my Radiant Red truck.
The existing holes must be widened just a little bit, 1/4" is perfect. I checked the size of the plug by pushing it into the empy hole in the container where my drill bits are held.
Here is what it looked like after taking the plate out, and before putting the plugs in.
And a few after...
All in all a very simple task, but I think it improves the look quite a bit, no more ugly holes.:thumbup:
