I live in a no front plate province.

My Ranger came with the license plate holder riveted on the front bumper, so i am stuck with 2 ugly holes.

Any good idea to hide this.

thanks in advance

I used what natkill posted. I used a color matched paint to color match the heads of the plugs. Looks decent.

In the past I've used something like these. Available at most any hardware store.

In-between atm
Plugs are the easiest option. I've also scuffed the backside and filled with epoxy putty on another vehicle, I was already repainting it however. I think I'll probably do that on my ranger when I color match the "H" cover.

I used these to plug the holes on the front bumpers on my 2017 and 2020 F150 Raptors. I got them at Lowes and painted them grey to match the bumper.
