    Perhaps not nearly a new find, but what the heck....it's my first post.
    If you get your 4runner with front plate holes already drilled, this is an option. Bumperplugs dot com. Here's some before and after. It did take a bit of finesse and know how to make a nice new flat surface and angled holes for the plugs, but the guy at the dealership were brutal in NOT pre-drilling the original holes. Hence, you can see some pressure distortion.

    I think two plates are the law now where I live. There's actually a site committed to bumper plugs???

    Did the same thing on ours. 2020 already had the black plate holder already on it. I bought the multi paint touch up from the dealer just to have ( being the blizzard ).

    Thanks for all the "welcomes".
    DGP1961...I think I'd call it more of a business than a site committed to "bumper plugs". But yes, that is their thing. They seem to have every make, model, and color match.
