Front Plate

I am still waiting for my car to show up on the truck but from the pics I can tell there is a front plate on it... Will there be holes in the bumper and if so is there any good way to fix it besides getting a new bumper... Tried to search could not find anything (disclaimer).

Yes there will be holes. My CLS cost @ $400 to pull the bumper, fill the holes and refinish the bumper.

+1 body shop need to plug those holes and repaint the bumper.

Good reason to do an E63 bumper.

What is your location?

There are companies out there that can plug and fill those holes on the spot, inexpensively.

The company that filled/buffed my rock chipped front clip will plug/buff license plate holes for $60.
