Default Front Bumper nipples?

Picked me up a new 2006 at honda and I told them that I didn't want a front plate. They told me not to worry about it - I won't have plates for a few days. However as soon as they whip the car around I noticed that I had a front license plate holder.. No biggie - my friend nick that was with me said that honda makes these covers (he called them nipples) that go over the screw holes and look like little bumps on the front bumper.. Is this true>? Does anyone know what i'm talking about?

I called honda and they don't know what I am talking about. I went to www.slhonda.com to see if i could find a part number, but i had no luck in doing so.

A part number or at least the real name of this part would be much appreciated. thanks inadvance.

They're called bumper plugs and if you bought your new car they're most likely stored in your secret compartment. Check there first. If it's not there go back to the dealer and tell them you're missing them and want them. If they don't have any in stock to give you, you can order them. They're cheap.

I tried ordering from handa-accessories, but couldn't get past the credit card payment system. Really anoying. You can just as easily order them from the dealer:

Mine were black, so if you car is black, you can use the following number directly:
Items(s) Part Number Qty. Price Extended Price
CAP, LICENSE PLATE *NH547* 90672-S2A-A00ZB 2 $4.68 $9.36

There are a couple things missing. They never gave me the lug-lock so that I can remove the lug nut. I searched for the bumper plugs, but they are nowhere in the car. If there just $10 bucks then Ill just pick it up. thanks

i can't imagine calling the dealer and asking if they had my bumper nipples

be sure to check the compartments on your doors, thats where i found mine
