license plate holder change

Hello everyone, does someone of you ever changed the holder for the license plate on the bumper ?
I want to change it because of all the ugly holes and want to install a new without holes.

Do i need to take of the bumper to replace that holder?

the least expensive remedy would be to insert BumperPlugs (paint code jet black 668)

I’ve read inconsistent (albeit few) reports about removing the bumper to install a new trim

The problem is that i have a very short license plate (germany) and you would still see the bumperplugs

What do you mean that you saw inconsistent reports about removing the bumper?

personally I don’t think the plugs look terrible

by inconsistent I mean that since said they removed the bumper, but the one who told me it took just 15 minutes to replace didn’t clarify if he removed the bumper or not even after I asked him
