Unsightly front license plate holes

I have a 04 RS and was wondering if anyone knew of a way to cover up those little holes in the bumper where the front license plate usually resides.

Thanks mysubaruimp, I was actually thinking of going with that one, but since I don't have a ReX I didn't want to seem like a poser. It's to bad there not reversible WRX on one side and RS on the other.

that would be sweet, you can use that one as a template and cut your own, or have a machine shop cut one out for you. maybe even make like 10 of them etched with RS in them and sell them

You know mysubaruimp that's a pretty good idea, thanks I might just do that.

I bought some little nylon plugs from a "Do it Best"hardware store and painted them with factory touch up paint.

I haven't seen em on ebay, and the only place I've seen they cost $40 that's why I think I'm gonna go with Mike's idea.
