I'm going to black out the center of the bumper soon. I can always put the license plate holder back on there once I'm done. But I was thinking of covering the holes with bondo & painting. Then, installing the plate on a holder on the right or left corner of the bumper. Can you guys recommend or show photos of a plate holder for the corner of the bumper for a Gen2 XB?

Also, other than paint... Is there good film that can be used to black out the bumper like the stuff used for the A-pillars? If so, I suppose the stuff would need to be heated to conform to the shape.

Oh cool, I'm sure someone can match the satin vinyl pretty well. That'll be easier than painting and easily reversible if needed.

Yes, the A pillars are covered. A lot of you guys take the tape off, but I like it. The black pillars make the car look like it has a giant window that wraps around from the back pillars all the way around.

This was your thread. Ask whatever you want.

Edit: The pictures at the top of page 2 (original 10-post, page format) show both a-pillars and grill. It demonstrates how each changes the look of the xB.
Ooooh! The Miata. BTW, I went with lighter wheels thanks to your wheel weights post (Here or on Club XB, dunno).

I love Miatas, but my wife gives me a lot of sh1t about the possibility of buying one.

Also... your bumper blackout is vinyl right? Satin or glossy?
