Anyone remove the front license plate bracket?

[SOLISIMO]

If so how bad are the holes

Just got my expy lil over a month ago and it didn't have a bracket...only holes. It don't look good--you can't quite see them on my avatar for good reason. It has 3 small holes that prolly held on the bracket and 2 larger ones where the prev. owner screwed thru bumper only on top 2 slots of plate. Got my new plates, but not putting front plate on anyway until I get pulled over for it. I'll take pic when I get home.

I was involved in a collision and mine kinda... fell off... It isn't so bad when you have a dark colored lower section but even with the tan it still isn't terrible.

damn, I wonder if I can get plugs

 

[RockyF150]

I never had one hehe

 

[GAINMOB]

fill it with silicone...or plugs then touch up paint

I just had mine removed when I had a bull bar installed. The bar covers the holes now but I plan to get plugs for them.

never removed on purpose, but had it broken off twice since purchase back in '97.
the bottom straps that go below the fascia were factory riveted, PITA to drill out, holes are unsightly for sure.

+1 on either plugs etc. & color matched.

PanHandler.

Anyone have any info on how to actually remove it?

I didn't realize that your picture was in your signature until after I replied. Your Expy is the sexiest thing I have ever seen. It's gorgeous.

Just a heads up, the front plate bracket on mine used plastic rivets to attach to the bumper.

If you're planning on filling them, putting in some plugs wouldn't look terrible but why not just take a bit more time and fill the holes with epoxy and then some touch up paint to make it look like they were never there.

I'm with up above they make a urethane filler you might want to look into as well. I shaved the front plate cover on my vette. Molded it into the bumper.
