They are called bumperplugs. Go to http://WWW.BUMPERPLUGS.COM and order em. They are a bit pricey, but alot better then two stupid holes. I don tknow what color yours is, but with Black I barely notice them.

Yea, I am in PA and we dont need them either, but I guess my car was dealer traded from NJ, where its the law. I was pretty upset when I saw it

I had mine painted with everything else, if you aren't getting anything else painted, then you're best to go with bumperplugs. They're almost 30$ a pair though...

So I finished up the painting of the chrome insert and put it back on my car. I am not extremely pleased, but for now its alot better then the chrome. I used Krylon Fusion and then a Krylon clear coat, but not matter what I did I couldn't get the glossy look that would match the car.

Here are some pictures:

I will probably end up buying new inserts(probably have to get an entirely new grill, not sure if you can get just the inserts) and have a professional do it. Still, much better then the stupid chrome mustache
