I'd love to have that option, but I have the clearbra installed as well.

I am also curious as to how well they worked. and what they looked like...for me it would be a quick fix until I have the time to leave my car at the dealership for a few days to have that and some other things fixed. Thanks!

I did not even try to put them on because there were four holes and you actually have to make the holes a little bigger to fit the bumper plugs. So if you decide to go with bumper plugs you can't go back. But the plugs themselves were really nice. I ordered metallic black and it was very similar to my cars paint color. Another problem I had was that the dealer drilled the holes a little rough and made the hole area concave. If you have two holes that didn't bend/concave the hole area you will have no problem with the plugs.
