Anyonme with a Roadster or Coupe found a good way to plug the license plate holes? I have my car in getting some roch chips fixed and figuered that it would be a simple hole to fill. As it turns out, BMW put a nutsert(threaded insert) into the plastic and doesn't seem to offer a factory plug.
I look forward to any suggestions to make it look pretty short of removing the factory nutserts.

but if it's in getting work i'd just fill the holes and paint over.

The bumperplugs won't work on our cars as the nutsert is mounted to a recesses in the bumper cover itself. You would have to drill it out to a 7mm hole to make it work.
The body shop just called and wanted a decision so I am having them fill the factory holes...hope noone ever needs to put a plate on the front of the car!

Initially drilled the holes and added painted plugs. The nutserts are removable if you remove the bumper cover. When I deleted the bumper lights, I had the plate holes done too. Also changed the tow hook square cap hole to a round plug.

And here I thought that I was obsessed! Thanks for giving me something else to pain over Ron! Hmmm, to delete the lights or not delete the lights?!
Can anyone out there toss a coin for me?

I posted this since now is the time to do this if you ever wanted to. You have to decide what you want to do.
