you can make up a plate from bunnings and just mount the plate on it
you can either leave it or you can shave it, then respray the bumper
would be funky if you could get something made up like the team integra (http://www.team-integra.net/misc/store/images.asp?ItemID=3) license cover hole cover

as vinny said theres those L brackets you can buy from hardware shops, theres ones cusco make but too expensive for a piece of metal pretty much the same thing as the L brackets.
otherwise you can use zipties.

you can pickup those L brackets from bunnings with pre-drilled holes for like $2 or something
actually i got one at home, if you want it come and get it :)

For the holes.. you can putty it up, smooth it up wif careful sanding....and then colour over it with matching colour.. clay it, polish, and should be very hard to notice

LOL, i don't trust that red rectangle :X
Thanks everyone. Yeah i'll probably just think about it, drill into the bumper..
But you know where the original location is, isn't there like a rectangle thing that sticks out, with holes? or will it just b two holes??

No idea. Its like a light blue. I'll have a look 2night but yeah. I need some plugs for my rear, i took the honda badge off, and its covered in blue tape atm. LOL. and the glue isn't coming off =\ is like super glue. and the front, no holes.. but .. glue marks still kinda there.. i was heating up the back one with my feet heater, and then i just slighty put my finger nail between the badge and boot, and it just came off .. cheap shiet lol
btw where to pick up plugs like that in sydney? honda dealer? or whaaaat?

by rectangle thing you mean the metal mount? if so they comes off as well, its just two holes that are bit bumpy.
personally incase you regret it, i would zip tie it to the grill.
for the rear badge correct me if im wrong but i dont think they have any plugs for those small holes, you would prob have to weld the holes and repaint it.

The rear bar/boot lid will require welding of the badge holes to look flush.
Those OEM Honda plugs are only available for the fronts

i've had my plates relocated for the last 3 years
aslong as its visible for oncoming traffic, you'll be right.
i've drive alot of RBT and also been pulled over by alot of unmarks.
they dont say anything.
