LOL.... Pert is a smart and deep modder. If he buys a car with the plates on it already he will find the right peeps to make it clean again.

I guess the only real way to fill the holes is to..... fill the holes and do some paintwork.

Thanks Vic, always appreciate the kind words. As I am sure you know, with cars like these, you don't cut corners -- at least I dont (and it's pretty clear you don't either). If I am going to do it, it's going to be done right. Now, do me a favor, and start keeping your cars stock so I dont get tempted by what lies out there in the modding underworld. Maybe pick up a Dodge Dart or a Chevy Volt...I need to have less expensive addictions!!

He actually never showed the holes. They were implied based off the front plate moniker being mounted.
