Angry Front plate holes in bumper

Just bought a TL and it has a front license plate bracket on it. I'm not a big fan of having a front plate and want to take it off but the holes are going to drive me crazy. I did a search and found a product called Bumper Plugs but the holes in the bumper look like they came from the factory and were not drilled in there. What have you guys used to cover the holes?

You can get them from the dealership or OEMacuraparts.com. I think they are like 15 bucks a piece.

YES! They bug me, especially after I did the silver front bumper lettering on my NBP. I'll ask the dealer for some, seems like a minimal, cheap, quick snap in piece.

Never bothered me when I had the plate off. Plate is back on now, as it is much better than getting a ticket or giving the police a reason to pull you over
