Push Pin

Hey guys, I'm doin alot to my trucks appearence over the winter to get ready for spring. I decided I want to remove my front plate and bracket that was on the truck when I got it. Thing is that it is drilled through the bumper with 2 large screws. Anyway I wanna see how it would look with a set of pushpins in the place to fill the hole that I would paint with touch up paint. I just cant find any info on what size Pushpin I would need to buy. Does anyone know ?? I think the truck looks so much cleaner without the plate on front, and I dont have the cash to buy a new bumper or have the holes filled by a bodyshop. Thanks in advance.

Do you have $$ for the ticket?

We don't have the front plates here, but the truck was from a state that did. I took off the bracket, painted 2 screws and put them in. I also painted the bracket, but have not put it back on because I havn't found a front plate I like that much.

my stepdad is a cop, so I can get away with it and not get a ticket almost 99% of the time.

Josh Take that front plate off. These truck look so much better with out them. I have it done to my truck almost 3 years now. accutually the ford dealer would not put the front plate on. He said he did not want to mess the front up, But I have only gotten 1 ticket and that was when I was parked in Queens, about a month ago. SO on L.I. It is really not a problem.

What the hell? I posted a link for you yesterday, and now my post is gone? Is there a RAMBO Mod on this board or something? What about the other guys with www.bumperplugs.com???
