[Has anyone removed front license plate bracket?]

Thanks for the replies. We saw that even though the bracket wasn't ordered it showed up on the window sticker. The dealer assured me they wouldn't install it if it came uninstalled. The dealer called me and told me it came installed, maybe they're lying to me? I'm not sure what they have to gain by installing it? I'll have to order some plugs

 

[Has anyone removed front license plate bracket?]

Hi, I recently took delivery of my 2020 aviator. It’s awesome! When I ordered it through the dealer we made sure to remove the front license plate bracket. Well... it came installed. My dealer said Lincoln installed it probably because front plates are required in Utah. So, has anyone tried removing it? It looks like it’s installed with some type of plastic rivet. I’m worried that removing the rivets will leave large holes and I would be better just leaving the plate on. Thanks for any advice!
