Default Holes in front bumper from license plate holder removal

Anyone have an idea of how to fix the holes in the front bumper left over from the removal of the license plate holder. My state does not require a front license plate and I want the remove the ugly holder. Are there any painted plugs available to stick into the holes?

I bought some plugs from Home Depot. They cost about 30 cents or less. Its in the hardware section (where the screws, nails, etc are located). I used locking hole plugs. Just get some touch up paint and paint it to match.

Better yet, get nylon plugs from HD. Make sure you measure your hole diameters before you go. Like dsmal above, I used touch up paint on the surface and used a few coats at that. Then I clear-coated the plugs. They look A LOT better than the holes and cost substantially less than bumperplugs.com

The nylon plugs cost less than $2 for both. Touch-up paint varies upon source (typically $6 and up). Simple plug and play
