I bought the car from dealer, there are now FOUR! holes on the front bumper. I don't understand why they couldn't just use the existing holes to put the license plate holder. Now I'm stuck with these holes and I'm looking for a cheap alternative to fill them. I like the clean look of the front end without the plates and don't want to spend a fortune at a body shop, but I also don't want 4 dots either. What I can do/use?

View 4 RepliesI just bought a 2011 GTI in Steel Gray Metallic. The first thing I did was remove the front license plate holder.
Doing that revealed 3 large holes (about 8mm), and 2 small screw holes. I'd like to repair this myself or have a shop do it.
Is there a relatively easy way to fix this myself (other than putting the holder back on)?
I'm having the bumper cover replaced on my 350 (stupid mistake on a number of fronts it's starting to look like...) and the indy shop that I chose in my town to do the job (Lexus dealer is 100 miles away and this shop was recommended by the guys that take care of all the Lambos/Ferraris/Porsches etc) told me that they had to drill the holes in the bumper cover to retro fit the sensors. Is this correct?

View 3 RepliesThe front bumper on my L is a bit loose. It looks like there's suppose to be a clip there that may have broke off. What this part is? I'm assuming I have to take the entire bumper off to fix it?
View 7 RepliesWhat sensors are in the front bumper? I slid out on black ice into a snow bank and it crushed in the bottom grille and as I'm clearing out the snow I noticed a sensor dangling with a broken harness that I was wondering what it was for. I have a nonFsport bumper with LED fog lights and both fog lights are operational.

I was hoping there were instructions on how to remove the 2010 RX350 front bumper cover somewhere? We had a little fender-bender, and I was planning on trying to replace some of the items myself. I'm handy, but always prefer instructions over trial/error!

View 6 RepliesJust got the 2010 and put 100 miles on it and found the front bumper loose on the passenger side. Difficult to see but it looked loose right by the headlight housing, a little pull and it popped up. Looked like the fastener was never there.

View 6 RepliesSo I recently bought an '09 Elantra for 52K miles. Car's a beauty except the front bumper cover is loose under the headlight on the driver side(got it that way). The first two pics are from the driver side whereas the third shows it in comparison to the passenger (which is totally fine). The gap seems to be getting bigger ever so slightly. What would be the cheapest and easiest fix?
View 1 RepliesSo my gf parked at the mall and when she pulled out the front bumper got stuck on the parking divider and came off on the left side. One of the fastening holes appears to be torn and it appears the bumper just needs to be put back in place.
View 8 RepliesDealer did repair work on front bumper. Now, after reinstalling a new front bumper, I noticed water starting to form inside the fog light assembly after it has rained. Dealer says this is normal due to our tropical weather. This has never happened prior to the repair work that was done.
View 12 RepliesSo I've seen a lot of people on here wrapping the mid section of the front bumper black to give it a more aggressive look.
For those that have done this, will I need to cut a hole for the sensors or will the sensors still work with the wrap covering them?
I'm considering having both my front and rear bumper and possibly my hood to get repainted by a bodyshop in the spring just due to stone chips, and a couple small scuffs. The car still looks great but since I'm planning on keeping my 460 a while I want it to look perfect, my car is black, but I'd rather leave it as is than have a body panel that's a different shade.
