front license plate question
I've seen a lot of the people on here with the factory caps to cover up the license plate bolt holes on the front bumper, my question is where can I get the actual back piece that the cap plugs into? Mine were missing when I purchased the car and have been looking for some since. Number 7 maybe?
Yes, they should be number 7. Make sure you have the plastic pins on the back of the bumper so they'll go onto the bumper once you get them.
A friend had none of the pins on one side where the metal bracket (number 7) had fallen off. We epoxied in a nut that was the right size so the plastic clip would have something to hold onto. It's worked since. :thumbup.

Just a thought to consider before buying them; my caps didn't fit properly even with the piece you speak of. I had to super glue them anyways to make it look flush. If you don't plan on removing them for any reason I'd just glue em.

Just curious...
What color is your ride?!?!?
I had caps on my FBP (black) '00 CiViC, and they looked okay, didn't standout at all actually, but...
Now I'm driving a VSM (silver) '98 CiViC, and the license plate plugs look like ***, IMHO!
On a light colored car, I prefer the holes to big plastic blisters...

It would be a frost white del sol. I could see the problems with fitting right and considering I don't actually need them holes I'll glue them.
