For anyone interested in removing their front plate and plugging the screwholes, you can just pick up some trim panel retainers from Autozone and paint them yourself.

I did mine and used Model Master enamel, FS35164 Intermediate blue which happens to be an exact match for Sonic Gray. I have all the materials from building plastic models so I just needed the color. I painted a bunch (well 3 pairs) so if there are any SGM owners out there, hit me up.

Looks good! Now I need to find the color for my polished grey metallic.

Wow, good job mang! How much do you want for a couple? I have the Sonic Gray touch up paint, but that looks better!

These look great! My wife and I just picked up a Sport Sonic Grey a few weeks ago and I've been looking for options to cover the screw holes. If you still have two available, would you be willing to ship them?

The dealer screwed 3 Pretty bad holes into mine. It looks so ugly.

Do you know exactly what size retainer you used for the plugs?

I’m not sure what you’re asking. The plugs don’t need a retainer, they have a barb molded into the stem that you just press in the bumper til it clicks.
