So, kinda noobish but, how does one install bumper plugs?!
I got some and the holes in the bumper are far too large for the clips on the plugs...

you sure you dont have them backwards? hard to explain with actually having them in my hand. as long as you had your plate screwed into those holes at some point, the plugs should pop in. are they oem?

I had my license plate on there but the metal things holding the license plate to the bumper rusted to crap and I had to break them to get it off. So I'm guessing I have to get new grommet things. The bumper and the plugs are both OEM. In fact, my bumper needs work...It's cracked in 2 places at the bottom and it messes with my lip fitment. Anybody know someone who'd fix it?

ok.. now it makes sense. yeah, you need to replace that metal part you took off in order to pop the plugs in

 

[97GreenEX]

Dang it. That means I gotta go to Honda and spend about $3. lol

 

[rey rey]
