Yes.
Mr. TEXAS TRAVISTY did already and done a mighty fine job of it too.


LINK, Post#188

He vinyl wrapped the original holes... I believe.
Also, I believe someone found some hole-plugs that covered up the openings quite well also. Can't recall who exactly or find that thread though..

it was cake I bought the lancer license plate bracket and just trimmed the back side out to the curve of the front bumper, and had to drill two small holes in the front bumper.

oh and as of the holes left behind I just covered the front bar in 3m matte Grey vinyl to match the color of my wheels. if I would have been smart I would have JB welded the holes closed. it was just my luck but a rock hit exactly where one of the old license plate holes was and it ripped a hole in the vinyl so I have to go back and take care of that soon.
ps thanks mRVRsport

wrap it in matte black vinyl, it will give a bit of a contrast and look slick
