Default Bumper Plugs?

I've decided to get rid of my front plate. I was wondering if anyone is using bumper plugs and where'd you get them?

Thanks, but I was looking at something that I could just plug in and not worry about doing minor body work. Also, I was trying to get opinions from forum members on what kind of bumper plugs they have.

I saw that, but $25 + shipping yikes!



I ended up going to Autozone and picking up retaining clips for $2.49 instead

Oh and BTW, I know that I can google it. However, I wanted to get an opinion from an informed community about their experiences. If I wanted a "just google it" snarky answer I would have posted the question on gencoupe.

And if you searched on gencoupe you would have found the tread about the cheap Lowe's plugs.

I did a search for "bumper plugs" on both sites, found nothing other than snarky comments. I guess I don't have 1337 g00gl3 skills like everyone else does. I can see this site isn't the "soooooo much better than gencoupe" that it makes itself out to be.
