Default new fatboy questions

(1) Just got the new fat boy. I like the look without the rear seat on the bike but there is the factory paint protector on the fender ( clear plastic). Before I go pulling it off, is there anything I need to know so the paint does not come off or any other damage?
If I put a rear seat on I will have the carpet on the bottom of the seat so I do not need this plastic stuff. Just want to be sure there is nothing bad going to happen when I pull it off.

(2) Also does anyone make a hole filler when the license plate is removed and mounted to the frame? Or am I left with the three holes in the fender? Under where the back seat was there is a little plastic HD black thing in a hole. Can I get three of these and or will they fit?

(3) Last question....Anyone make a rear light that is flush with the rear fender (LED or other) and not sticking out like the factory one?

Sorry for all the questions
Thanks
