Default removing front bumper

Sorry meant removing front license plate

I am in the process of hopefully acquiring a 997. It has the license plate in the bumper already. I was told you could buy plugs, do they make them in the factory porsche colors? Where can you purchase them?

Was thinking of getting the license plate frame that installs where the tow hook is.

Thanks

Using the tow hook hole is an off center compromise that permits you to avoid the holes in the bumper. But if the holes are already drilled into your bumper you might as well just use them and keep the bracket there. Why not?
