What did you do to cover the holes from the license plate? I want to get a relocated plate but I am concerned about the holes showing.

When you buy the car new you are supposed to request the dealer to not drill holes in your bumper..only thing you can do is take it to a body shop make them fill it up, sand it , prime it and paint the bumper over.

i tried covering it up with some contact paper that's supposed to be SWP/Whiteout, but it's a shade off from mine so it ended up looking like two boobie pasties on my front bumper. so i just took it off and left the holes as is. the best option (besides buying a new bumper) is like @nyc_Zn6 said and have a body shop clean it up by filling it in and repaint.

been awhile since i updated my build thread... some pics added for some of the changes
my front lip literally got smashed to pieces right after nisei showoff a few months ago apparently whatever that shit was on the road also took out like 3-4 other cars' front lips/bumpers too as they were pulled over to the side already. so ordered a new JDP front lip which took about a month. not bad considering it had to be made-to-order. then my set of regas FINALLY showed up after a few months of waiting. got these cleaned up and prepped then sent off to get paint-matched in whiteout. while waiting for the wheels to be finished, picked up a set of hankook v12's to mount, along with new RPF1 valve stems. lastly, lowered the car about another 1/4" all around. next up, going to custom mount a Varis cf intake duct to my front bumper

Thanks man! Not sure yet. I actually enjoy the stock power as crazy as that sounds lol. Eventually will probably look into a greddy turbo kit sometime down the line though

my homie hooked me up with a Varis cf intake duct from his old car, so i decided to reuse it on mine scary at first making that first cut in the bumper but once i made did and realized there was no turning back, it wasn't so bad at all. i think it looks pretty cool and different from the other intake ducts/holes i've seen so far. plus it actually goes up directly to the stock intake box area too (sorry forgot to take pics during the install).
