I have a whole box of plugs that I got when I bought the contents of a shop. What size is the hole. I can't check mine because I had it filled in when it was re-chromed.

Hardware aisle at Lowes. A 1" plugs fits just fine. It is zinc plated, not chrome, but it is a lot less than $19.50.

The ones at the hardware stores are not chrome so they don't match up to the Chrome bumper so I got one from AA.

Home depot has chromed (could be zinc platted that looks like chrome, dont know dont care) hole plugs that match the bumper perfectly, and fitment is as good as it gets!

$2 instead of $19 and hassle
