Easy DIY fix for front license plate holes?
 
I'm going to remove the front license plate holder since Kentucky only requires rear plates. Does anyone have any tips or tricks for an easy, inexpensive DIY trick for filling in these holes?

I used the plastic panel trim retainers and touchup paint Or you can buy these

I filled the holes and painted them with Dr. Colorchip, the fuzz weren't down with the look, they convinced me to put it back since. :propeller:

haha! I purchased mine used from a dealership in Ohio where plates are required in front. I just picked up the push pins from AutoZone and got them painted to match. Gonna pull the plate frame and pop these in tomorrow.
