Removal of front license plate bracket

Well i removed my front license plate bracket since I live in florida and they are not required my law....The unfortunate part is this bracket was held into place with rivots. So I decided to drill the rivots and was left with Three ugly holes in my bumper. I looked at bumperplugs.com, but for the price I decided to purchase hole plugs and paint them myself....attached are a couple pictures before and after....and if you noticed somehow during the project I have a small scratch that I have to figure out how to fix since I don't paint for a living

This is what I did with my front plate and I live in IL. Just recently did it so not sure if it's going to be a problem yet or not but it looks much better than the alternative I think.

Ya Chicago police didn't like the front window tinting law either and would write tickets even though they were legal. So I think this does look better then the big plate bracket I'll cross my fingers I dont get harassed by the northwest suburban police.
