OB bumperette delete/rear diffusers
Fairly unobtrusive, and may actually be functional. 
I still have to rebracket the auto-trans cooler so it's in the center.
The black makes it difficult to see detail; the second shot is during test fitting.

Jim,
"I find your lack of faith...disturbing."
...
I moved the cooler to the center. At least it stopped raining when I finished.
It's really tough to photograph against white!

Did you not look at what you did??? Entirely obtrusive and non functional.
Uhm...did you huff too much exhaust????????? No offense but , get serious. That's nothing short of what a ricer mod would look like for who in blazes knows what.
Just a friendly request....Yank those things off of there before you give us all a bad name!

FYI - Earlier bumpers have smaller holes there to fill.

IMHO..Put the energy into molded plastic caps that can be placed over the stock bumperettes and painted to match with out any flexible paint stuff or whatever.. 
Whose POS is this?

Bah!
They actually look OK, and they are actually difficult to see what they are, in person, unless you look closely. It was difficult to find angles to photograph them in detail.
...
Tony,
That's a good idea actually. I want some paintable blanks for the US marker lights too.
...
Initially, all I wanted was to cover up the holes left by removing the clunky bumperettes. A painted panel across the indent would have been too easy, though.

Yo Vegas Baby...if I had my choice, those rear "Nipples" wouldn't even be on the car!
BTW Porken, don't let us stop you from innovating. It takes guys like you to come up with different ideas. They won't always go over well though.

I dont know if its legal in CA or not, doubt it, but could you get a "european" plate made in the same plate number that you have now?
That would cover the area.
Then again you may not like the big European plates?
I see them now and then in vegas on cars...not sure of the legality of them though.
Legal until pulled over i suppose
?

Also, they might look better if painted body color...
Then they would not stand out as much.
