Ok guys I need your expertise, my car came with a front bracket on it and I think the front plate ruins the look of the car. I have the plate on at the moment because i think it would look weird with just the bracket and I don't want to drive around with holes in the bumper. Is there a cheap fix for this? What have you guys done? I know Im not the only one. Post up some pics!

Or get your shop to fill the holes. I had the dimples where the plate holes would be, and the tow hook filled so my bumper is pretty much smooth all the way across now.

What I did was sand the plugs until they were smooth and scratched up, applied coats of touch up paint every 30 minutes or so, waited a day for it to dry, then wet sand and buff so the paint was smooth.

Thanks for the info. I appreciate the help.
Do you think 3 coats is enough?

It really depends on the paint. Just put as many coats until you feel it's all covered up. My starfire pearl touch up paint is really thin, so I had to put maybe 8+ light coats.
