Too bad, I would've traded you my bars for yours without the holes in it. Do you have a front bar without holes?

I agree, that blue and silver is sharp. It really pops so bars blend in for a nice touch. My rails were hiding a sweet paint job and smooth look. I've got an 11 Root Beer Light/Dark Pearl 2 tone. Rare color so I don't want to hide it.

Lowe's or Home Depot might have something. I've seen those plugs for flat surfaces, but never seen them for rounded surfaces.

Try foil duct tape used by HVAC guys. Available at your big box or any local hardware store.

Here is a process how to install new aftermarket guards on the older models; mine too had the holes after removal.
