No need to apologize. I just drilled holes in my license plates and moved it up to match the existing holes in the bumper and clear it from the lower grill opening.

Well thanks for sharing what you did. At this point I'm done with HA and canceling my account. Back to gencrap.com I go!

No need to cancel the account. It's a nice playground over here.

I just did body work and smoothed my bolt holes over. Looks alot better but not everyone has those skills or wants to pay a bodyshop to do it. So plugs from home depot I guess are the next best thing...

The problem is, they don't sit as flush as I'd like them to. I bit the bullet and ordered a pair of painted Bumper Plugs from bumperplugs.com. Sure they're $32, but in the grand scheme of things, I spend way more on other car stuff and I want it done right.
