Default License Plate - drilling holes..

as some of you know, i will be forced to drill holes into my lexus to put the plate on =(.

heres the question...you guys know how the civic's holes are? like if your plate is off, theres a plug type of thing that snaps into the hole and fits it perfectly..its like a rectangular plug as far as i remember..

well do they sell kits out there to set up your own holes like that? i think that idea on hondas part was very smart. wanna figure out the best way of doing this before i do anything permanent..

thanks

Here's what I have done in a similar situation - not on my GS though:

Go find you some of those plastic/rubber caps that go on the spingy door stops (they make that cool sound when you flick 'em)

They're little white caps, and they come in varying sizes like coin sizes - they ususaly come in little bags of 5 or 6. You could probably find them at places like Home Depot, Lowes, any kind of home improvement place. If you are closer to a hardware store, try there first.

Take one of your bolts with you so you can get a pretty good idea of fit...

Paint to body color.
