Yea my front bumper is also warped from the tight screws. At least I don't have the 2 inner holes, I just have some markings from the flush screws that scrapped it. I feel your pain though brother.

Dude... that's strange.

When I got my car, there were no front plate brackets. I wanted to install the front plates myself becuz I didn't want my dealer to mess up my clear bra.

There should only be 2 holes to mount the plate bracket.

Just what do you expect the service rep to do? They'll probably remind you that it's the law in VA to have a front plate.

if it bothers you, you can take your car to a body shop and have those holes filled in and repainted. should be about $300-$400
