Front Bumper Plugs

If you live in a state that does not require a front plate, this is a very easy and cheap solution for the holes in the front bumper that would be used for a plate bracket.

I found these at Lowes, in the hardware section. They have drawers with various specialty fasteners, etc., and they happen to carry these black plastic plugs:



You can use the part number on the bag to look them up at your local Lowes. There are 2 plugs per packet, and they cost about $0.22. Just snap them into the holes:






They look perfect on the dark grey, and of course on black, too. On the other colors it may be a toss-up whether to put in the black plugs or just leave the holes open. You could always use some touch-up paint on the plugs to try and match them to the bumper if you have a lighter-color Forester.
