Drill holes on front bumper.. Fix?
I am looking at used zl1s and one of them has drill holes in the front bumper for the license plate. Assuming this is the ONLY thing preventing me from buying the car, can this be easily fixed to make it just like new? Or is this something I should avoid at all cost because a repair will be visible and/or ugly over time.
Need your professional opinions..

If the only issue are drill holes for a license plate, it was a car I wanted and the price was right, I wouldn't let it deter me from buying it. They can be filled in and a good paint shop could repaint it to where nobody would ever know for a couple hundred dollars. If you have the skill/ability to do yourself, you could 'fix it' yourself for a few dollars.

Not for everybody, but I think they look fine. I am considering removing my front plate.

Along the lines of bumper plugs, I went to my local Lowes and picked up 4 plastic flat plugs in the hardware dept. Hit them with Dr. Color Chip touch-up paint and pushed them in the holes left from the license plate bracket. The plugs cost me less than $2.00.
