Holes in my front bumper...

jjhan85 · 02-19-2007, 04:03 PM

Yea, so when I got my E90, about two summers ago the dealership drilled two holes in my bumper for the damn licesne plate. Now i know in Maryland you dont need a front license plate. So i took took it off. And now there are tw holes...just chilling in my bumper

...

I was wondering how much would it cost to get it fixed? Is there a DIY for it?

Thanks alot guys.

Or you can have a body shop repair it for about $300.

When did that become the law? As far as I know you need a front plate in Maryland. I almost got a ticket from a trooper because I left the front plate off my mustang. You might want to check on that before you go to the trouble and expense of closing up the holes.
