Default Real stupid question...

How do you take off the cover on the front of my bumper so I can put my lame California license plate on? I got a fix it ticket on it and I must put it on.

On the seam at the very bottom of the cover are two small screws, can't recall if they are torx or phillips.

Push the cover up as far as you can and look in between the cover and the bumper. You will see 2 torx screws. Remove these and plate will come off. I need to do this also. I have not gotten a tic yet but I know it is just a matter of time. I took my cover off before and there were no holes drilled for a front plate, only indentations where they should go. I hate drilling holes in my car. I wish all states would just do away w/ the front plates!! Guy
P,S. I love your seats. Where did you get? Are they G.S. Seats?
