Front license plate holder.

I took the plate holder off about 4 days after I got my cobalt and took all the screws and whatnot off. But then there are the 3 big holes in the front. So I just put the screws back in and just left it at that. Could anyone give me the best way to fix this?

if you want it flush you'll have to order a new bumper like i did for my Z ($431 for the part and having it painted by the dealer) or head to a body shop to fill it.

sounds like a wet sand, bondo and repaint job to me. that would be a couple hundred bucks to cover three weak holes.

Yep, sounds right to me. No biggie, quick and easy. The paint is the expensive part.

Just remember aftermarket paint and bondo arent as bonded to the bumper as well as factory and eventually it will peel.
