Plugs for license plate holes?
Friday, June 12, 2009 7:27 PM
I want to get something to hide the holes from my front license plate for when I'm at shows and all, but I can't do anything permanent, like having the holes filled, because the front license plate is required here in Illinois and I quite enjoy being left alone by the cops.

I remember reading somewhere online about some little rubber plugs that work well, but I'm not sure what they are actually used for or where I would find them.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Why not fill the holes, and make a bracket that attatches to the bottom of your bumper.

Then you dont have to sorry about cops, or plugs!

I agree carbon fiber is tacky. I have never been a fan of it.

I am waiting on some pictures from Steve of what he did with his Cav. It sounds promising.

There are the motorized plate holder that come out from under the car like this one
This would probably actually help you get point in a car show IMO

You can also by ones that are electronic, so hit a button and it comes out

^ Thanks for the info, but my car isn't a show car. It's only a daily driver that I like to take to local cruise nights and shows for the fun of it. Color matched plugs that I can pop in and out of the license plate holes are more than enough for me.

BOOOO
The hide away plates are so much cooler, but okay.
Even for a dd I would rather have that then having it mounted on the bumper,
however my car has a factory spot to mount the plates under the filler panel even though I don't need to have front plates here

But if I did I would definitely be getting the hide away
