bumper plug (not for license plate)

Ok...I have a stupid question. I put my GT3 bumper on last weekend, and noticed there is a hole on the left side. My old bumper had a plug over this hole, but the GT3 bumper didnt come with the plug. It looks like all of the bumper plugs online are for the license plate holes, not this one. I have 2 questions:

1) What in the world is this hole for???

2) Where in the world can I get a seal gray plug for it???

Georg

That hole is for the tow hook. You can get the plug for that at bumperplugs.com from the order page.

The plug you want from www.bumperplugs.com is $49.95. Order some RejeX too, and maximize your shipping charges. Great stuff and he has a good price for RejeX.

He can't take it off the old bumper as it was just installed on my car today!!!

However, Georg, if you can wait a week or so until I get a chance to get back to Dallas to pick up my old bumper, I will send you my old tow cover! I think its nice and clean but I don't have it in front of me, it might have been in one of the areas where paint was flaking and peeling but I can't recall. I'll email you.
