bumper plugs
I'm glad I live in Nevada. If your car does'nt come with holes in your bumper then you don need a front license plate. Thankfully my BMW did not come with them. But my Wife's Mini did. So I countersunk the holes enough for a sheetmetal screw to fit slightly over flush, I then filed down the slots some to make the screw flush with the bumper (I didn't file down the slots entirely because I might need to take them off at some point). I then used touch up paint to paint the screw heads and it came out awesome. you have to look really hard to see that there is anything at all.

looking at this in 2017. Just got my used 09 328i with 6 different holes behind the license plate and they don't even line up. I'm planning to move the plate to the tow hook, I guess I got some DIYing to do...LOL
