License Plate Mount Caps
So i finally removed the ugly front plate off my TL.
Well now i have two even uglier holes in my front bumper where the bolts for the plate holder goes. I called the local dealership, and was told they are 17$ a peice painted. This seems like a lot to me seeing as how the part isnt even the size of a quarter. I looked on www.acuraoemparts.com and couldnt find it, not sure if i over looked or if it really isnt there. I wanna try and find it online to see if i can get it any cheaper than 17$ a peice (after shipping).
Thanks for any help.

I would call your dealer and demand (friendly-like) that they give you a free set, as they technically owe them to you since that is part of you car. That's what I did with mine.
