holes in my front bumper

So i wanted to remove my front license plate today so that the "ACURA" letters can be seen and when i did there were two screws that were drilled right through the bumper. Does anyone know a way to fix the holes and make it look like it was never there? thanks

Dealer should have caps to cover the two holes that are by the ACURA in the bumper

Are those plugs $12 for a pair? or do you mean they're $24 for the pair?
Either way, they are damn expensive.

Yeah, good luck with that. They'll want $12 a piece for them. When I asked for mine the dealer looked at me like I had a third eyeball in my forehead. Never did get them. In my state a front plate is required but I wanted them anyway since they were on the car when it was delivered to the dealer. They somehow thought that since my state requires a front plate it meant they could just throw them away. (or sell then back to me)

i had the same issue.. needed plugs AND they drilled into the bumper. The plugs are expensive but be sure to check your gove compartment and where your manual is.

I was looking through there the other day...and what do you know.. bumper plugs!!

Ya we pull these off at pdi when we install front plate, they usually get thrown away I keep them in my box in case some one asks for some. i have even had customers come in with the front plate off and no covers and I throw them on for them
