Default Front bumper

I want to take my front license plate off but i have some nasty marks from the screws (they dont go all the way through) that i didnt even realize were there until i looked at it today. Im not very experinced at doing any of this stuff so is there an easy way i can fix this because i dont want to have to take it in and have it fixed and painted professionally i would rather my license plate on and spend the money on something more important if i have to do that.THANX

Should be able to get something to fill it in .. and smooth it down or sand it down and use touch up paint ...


thats an easy fix .... but what are you plans with the plate ? Mine is in the window but until I get that fix it ticket ... they sell the ones angled down or maybe one to put off the side on ebay ...

Good luck

You can get license plate hole plugs. www.bumperplugs.com I used it on my Camry back in the day. They have hundreds of factory colors prematched and painted.

Ckaler, i'm in your shoes also. thinking to plug the holes with something, just haven't had time to look for it yet. but was also thinking just to get the bumper plugs and save time.

if you decide to diy, fill, sand, paint-post pics! id be interested to see how it comes out!
