Default Front plate delete

When I bought my car, the salesman went outside and drilled on the front plate while we were inside signing papers. Needless I wasn't happy about it but the damage was already done.

Does anyone know a way I can delete my front plate and not look like shit due to the holes?

Take it to a bodyshop. You won't be really happy with anything else.

To give it more curb appeal is all. The better it looks the easier it will be to sell.

Do IT! and sell/trade me your wheels and MGW. I'll introduce to my ZR1 buddy and let you hear all the reasons no to buy.. Loves the car but non-stop bitching about the little things.

Good luck getting your C6Z. I would like to have one (non-Z), but the Mustang is my daily and a Corvette is just too small. And contrary to what the Bear Jew says, they're not built like Bentleys. Build quality between Corvettes and Mustangs is about the same IMO, which is pretty good, but c'mon...

Not parting it out. Sorry.

It's not my daily, it's a toy that sits in the garage most of the time.

Why not just suck up the boredom and not mod it for awhile? I'd sell the Mach before the 5.0, honestly. You can still get great money for that car, and use that towards something for kid friendly, like a SRT8 Jeep GC, TBSS, or something like that.

Why would I suck up the boredom? That seems kinda dumb to me rather than getting what I want. I thought I needed something kid friendly, but I really don't since I'm usually by myself when out in the car. When I have both the kids, I have my truck.

The Mach is the wife's car that I avoid driving unless I have to. I tried selling it once for her cuz she thought she wanted to. The buyer was coming from Louisana to get it, she cried for hours and changed her mind. So I had to tell the guy to turn around to go home. Needless to say he was a lil pissed. So when she wants to sell it, she will have to do that herself cuz I'm not doing that again! lol.
