So since I live in Ohio I decided I would be a good boy and go ahead and put on the front plate before I got a ticket. The thing is UGLY! I took it off and i'm now left with a freeking 1/2" hole. Any solution to this?

Thanks

you can put a filler there and get some paint, I just left my hole there with the black grommett. I wish the dealer would ask you if you want the hole or not, but - like Ohio - VA requires a front tag, so they drill away. I've put mine in my windshield with suction hooks and I haven't had an issue with it yet {knocks on wood}...

 

N02 purge..."the snot rocket"...thats my idea, dont steal it

I dunno guys.. I think the front plate's placement on our car is not bad at all... it looks pretty JDM hehe

oh to answer your question.... cheap solution: get a filler
more fancy one.. get a kit hehe

 

should be a black rubber grommet to fit in the hole.

 

as seen here:



now that you've posted this, I may try to fill it... it does look pretty crappy. That way if I get pulled over, I can just say there's no where to mount it

 

Man, you should have just left it off. I have gotten pulled over 4 times in my car. 2 tickets for me, 1 ticket for a friend that ws driving and the other time the guy let me go...and none of them said anything about me not having a front license plate except on one of the tickets the officer complained that I did not have a front license plate and that he could not get a speed on me with his lazer gun until I was 400 yards away and that I had to have slowed down by then. However i told him that I did not have a front bracket yet and that the ones for this car are made in japan and it is on back order. he said to just keep the license plate in the car in case another officer wanted to see it sometime. It is not a law that is really enforced in Ohio. In fact it is about to be eliminated.

Sorry about your holes. Not sure how you can fix them short of getting a new bumper. I am sure a body shop can do something though.

 

Anyone around dc have some extra apex silver paint lying around ?
