Could be but I will take a look tomorrow, last time I checked my plates in the front they were fine. Maybe a extra screw?

That's exactly what it is...when I moved to Florida from Virginia, I no longer needed a front plate, so I removed the front license plate frame, and there was a screw and rubber insert just like that in my air dam where the front license plate frame was attached.

speaking of the air dam, what is that anyways? i looked on the mitsu site, and the details just says, "mostly for looks. Really, really good looks." no picture, no explanation of what it is except for what its SORTA used for. heh. if you can, can you post a pic of what it is? thx
