I want to take the front license plate off..but there are those two annoying holes! any suggestions on how to fill them or somene way of making them dissapear lol??:smilie thanx

You're in luck with the black car. Try taking the plate off, reinserting the mounting screws without the plate, then snap on two black screw cap covers. Of course this is a solution only for temporary plate removal. I have no idea how you'd make a permanent repair to the fascia that would look decent.

used velco

While I cannot help you in filling the holes, but I mounted my plate in the following fashion.

I cut the heads off of two license plate screws and hot glued them to the two upper holes in the plate and then used strips of velco to attach the plate to the front of the car.... No holes, No mess, Comes off easy and the adhesive from the velcro did not bother the paint (held well too..):naughty

Royce.

Wow, this has held up so far? interesting.
Im going with no plate until I need to. Im close to state border and the other state does not require them so alot of cars riding around with no plate the cops seem not to be looking for that as much.

You can go to Auto Zone and get a few of those Black plastic push type body moulding plugs. They come in various sizes and you may have to open the hole up a tad but once its pushed in you will never see it there.

If you can, . . Do like I did. Get a body shop to fill them in when painting stripes.

Painted bolts

well the dealership already drilled in the holes ( dummys!!)

So I had an idea to Paint the Bolts the same color with ford Touch up Paint.... here they are...

Leon,
What is the rule in NV anyways? In PA we don't need front plates so I have not even thought about it until now.
I don't even have holes or bolts. There is just a slight indentation where they would go.

I hope this helps, Tim
P.S. I have not had a front plate on mine, and NO holes.... have been pulled over twice, told em about SB 251, and they let me go..:worship

Does the V6 fall into this category? It has a place to put the plate, but no bracket.

 

[mustangbaxter]

Honestly, I dont know, you can always run with out one, tell em ya just moved from out of state, if they give ya a " fix it " ticket, then go buy some velcro, one small piece on the bumper, one on the plate..... show DMV, and remove when y get home..<wink>

 

[Boglin]

I see some people driving around with the plate sitting on the dash. Wonder what the legal issue is on that? I guess just the V6s have the area in the front bumper for a plate cause my GT doesn't but the dealer drilled holes anyway.

In Nevada ya gotta have a plate because of that slight indentation...... But I'll just drive around till I get the fix it ticket, fix it then remove it as soon as I get home because the front plate looks JUST Fugly!!
