Holes in the bumper from front license plate bracket removed. Where can I get caps?
Hey guys I just purchased an 07 LS460 . The state that the car came from mandates that you have a front plate. The state I live in does not require one so I want it removed. The rep at Lexus says that they can remove it but the holes in the bumper will need to be replaced with plastic caps. He said because we dont usually mount the front bracket in this state he doesnt have any of the caps required to plug the holes from the screws holding the plate frame. Any idea where I can find these?? Can I just order them? Any help would be great!

interesting. I guess I got lucky, my dealer actually offered to repaint my bumper and fill the holes smooth since there was some good size rock chips. GA doesn't require front tags thank God!

Actually the dealerships that usually take care of this are the ones that do not require front plates like here in Indiana. I have fixed many cars for dealers wanting to fix this and actually just did one for an Armada. Usually this is worked into the purchase as a repair. Any type of plug you will use unless your car is black will look weird. IMHO

Front Plate
Unlike most of you, I want to mount a plate on my front bumper.(2007 LS460). And as stated, the holes are covered with paint. I can see where they are but not sure whats the best method of punching them out. Any suggestions?? Also are the holes threaded or do I need the screw type.
Thanks
Thanks
