Suggestions for repairing front license plate holes in a 997.2 Cab?
I'm looking for suggestions for repairing 2 holes in my front bumper from the front license plate that I have removed. I have a black 2010 C4S Cabrio, and have removed the front plate (why destroy such an awesome looking car with a front plate ??). The problem is that I now have to deal with the 2 holes that I'd like to make disappear.
Does anyone have any suggestions for an effective solution?

These look perfect, thanks. One question. Just checked out their website, and it says that they are removable - do these screw into the holes or do they just push in and hold on their own? And how easily do they remove?
I ask because while I am not required to have a front plate in our village, the City of Chicago does require it, and I drive into the city every day. I was actually ticketed in my '04 645 Ci Cabrio (while parked in an indoor garage!) for not having a front plate. While i really think the front plate ruins the fantastic look and clean lines of the car, I may have to suck it up and eventually put a front plate on (but I'll wait until I have to). I just want to know how easy these are to remove if I have to reinstall the front plate.
Sorry for the newbie questions, but I'm trying to keep my front end as clean as possible on this great looking car!

To answer your question they pull out. They are the little christmas tree shaped body panel holders with a painted top.
They work great, you will need to make the holes slightly larger(I know scary) to make the plugs fit and I actually took a razor blade to clean the plastic shavings when I was done drilling the holes. Push in the plug and bam, you are done.

I just installed 4 bumper plugs in my front bumper, and it couldn't have been easier. Not only do they look great and install easily, I ordered them on Monday afternoon and they arrived on Friday! So those 4 nasty holes in my front bumper have now almost completely disappeared, and the new look is clean and fresh.
The only thing I didn't particularly enjoy was drilling out the 1/4" holes in my bumper.... It physically hurt me to do that to my beautiful car... But the result is fantastic. So thanks to everyone for the great advice, and thanks to Eric at BumperPlugs for a great product and great service.
