Are there caps i can buy for the two holes on the bumper if i take out my license plate out? Is this somethign i can get from the dealer? And anybody with pics of this is welcome to post them, thanks

I know some people have used plugs from a s2000, however those require you to drill two more small holes as each piece is held by two nubs. Some other people have gotten stuff from http://bumperplugs.com/BPindex.html

Is that for real???

Did the dealer do that, or do cars in Singapore actually have that many holes there stock?

If it were the dealer I'd be pissssssssssed.

^ Either that.. or someone did that for a design? Not much of a design, I would cry if I saw that on my 3. Can you take pics of your bumper?

OMG, mazda really screwed you hard dude. I think I only have two, hated them so I left the holder on.

Go buy some cheap rubber plugs at the hardware store and touch up paint them. Buddy of mine did that and you can't even tell.

i went to kragen's and got a couple of push clips. painted them body color and put them into the holes in the bumper. looks much better.

Where you get the touch-up paint from? Dealer? What they charge, like $50 a thimble full? Thanx.

 

[mndsm]

Touch up paint is like 10$ I think. Unless your dealer is a pirate. I know Mazda was sending out free paint for a while.....

i went to a local paint shop and had them mix up a spray can of strato blue. got a can of primer and some scotch brite pads to scuff up the surface of the clips. i think it was about $25 for the paint supplies. the clips were like $0.97.
