I have seen Rivets put through the holes just to fill them in, it looks pretty cool too!

damn,  ur pictures got deleted before i could see em!    the link worked,  those are pretty awesome!    i removed the labels last night in less than 10 minutes i think im jsut gonna leave it blank for a clean look.

i was thinking about trying to fill in the holes even though there small but i think it would be a waste of time!  plus i couldnt think of what to fill them with besides maybe super glue or somethiing like that.

Most good hardware stores will have an assortment of chrome buttons that "snap in place" right into the holes left when you removed the original labels....This would give you a clean look, but fill the empty holes.....Several friends have done this with their  plastics.  :grin_nod:

They come in different sizes to fit different hole sizes....They are flat topped, chrome plated and have slotted spring back pieces on back that snap fits into holes. I`ve got one in my hand.....I`ll try to get my son to take a picture and post it up. I got these at Ace Hardware in So. Oregon, but I`m sure they`d be in most good selection hardware stores.

I have this one a friend gave me to size to the hole in plastic, if I went that way. I ended up going with carbon fiber ones for about $70.00 and I really like the look. I`ll try to post pic up in next day or two.
