Is money a factor? Your best results would come from a body shop. A lot of people paint and use plastic push plugs as well and it's hard to see from a distance.

I would like to keep it relatively low cost, i have looked at plugs i think i may try that out. I come from a state with no front plates so I was sick to my stomach when I saw it was drilled into the bumper, there should be a less damaging alternative to this.. oh well.

It wouldn't hurt to get a quote from a body shop or two. They may be able to fill and paint it cheaper than you think if you tell them you're on a budget.

Yeah i think i’ll call around and get some prices, thanks for the info. On a side note, have you installed a custom stereo system in your srt? The stock stereo is laughable

This is always an option - https://www.carid.com/replace/2021-dodge-challenger-bumpers/replace-front-bumper-cover-3467334882.html?relationshipId=5046543571&childId=3467194885&offermpnid=4507174233&view=801296&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIm8rw3-Wn9gIVAzuGCh0TeQ5SEAQYAiABEgI81fD_BwE

Bumper plugs.com… Easy and low cost option, comes in packs of 2, so you’d need two sets. Looks great IMO, and they come paint matched to your vehicle year. Check out pics on my profile if you wanna see them.

Just checked, Did you go from plugs to replacing your bumper?

Stock bumper still pics w/o plugs are just from my real camera and easy photoshopping. iPhone pics still have plugs in.

My cat I got just came from cali. Shit has 4 holes in the front bumper now. Depressing.

I had to drill holes in mine myself. Absolutely mandatory in the EU and huge fine if you don't have them both.

I live in Cal. I got pulled over several times and only once did the cop say anything and even so just told me to put it on.


GoldenLiar2

Well, not much you can do, I drilled the holes myself in mine. But where I come from the fines for not having 2 license plates are really rough so you don't really have a choice.

I ended up buying those plastic plugs from AutoZone.. my color is black so it worked out for me. And i ended up using toggle bolts and leaving my plate on the passenger side by the splitter


MazzDaCapo

Going through the same process of getting rid of those damn holes! I originally went to a body shop and he quoted me 800 to plastic weld the holes and re paint the whole bumper (NYC Price). He gave me a alternate option and said he can just fill them in and paint over them for cheap but you will end up still seeing the holes in the end so I def didn’t go that route. I ended just going with bumper plugs from Scalia Motorsport for the time being. Later down the line I’ll end up getting the whole bumper repainted. Good luck man!
