Default License Plate Relocation

Just ordered a Road 6 Customs license plate relocation for my superglide custom. Was wondering what should I use to plug / cover the three holes in the rear fender where the plate was orginally mounted? Thanks!

Update: Had road6customs horizontal side plate mount for a month and a half mounted to axle bolt. Went for a 2 hour ride yesterday and came home with no plate. Bracket broke in half at the one inch hole that went around the axle nut. Waiting on dmv to mail me a new plate. Also ordered a laydown license plate from hogrida.

I have heard that many times about the Road6 side mounts, I have one that I never installed taking up space in my garage.
i bought a set of their bars and decided against using them as the metal they use is too soft in my opinion.
