I understand saving cost ... but come on ... looks ugly. Never own a car with these holes in it.

Shabby workmanship ... I am starting to find out. They probably rushed everyone of these 2016's out the door as fast as they could slap them together .... then let the dealers worry about the little shit.

Has nothing to do with "shabby workmanship". It's how the bumper was designed...and as I have said before, it is very common to cars sold in multiple markets...my old mans 911 has two, more obvious bumper caps that cover where the cars are tied down when shipped overseas...some of you are way, way to picky about nothing lol...go out and enjoy your car.

You must be trolling. No way it's anywhere close to comparable and it has nothing to do with workmanship.

edit:

I've had my car for 1 1/2 months. Put on my license plate, detailed multiple times, and installed LED plate bulbs and I never even noticed the dimples.

Please, sell your car (if you even own one) and go buy a Honda. You will fit in much better over there...

We get that but lets be real, it does not look good in any way, it may be the blue that makes it stand out more but any time i look at it, it's looks bad, think there is always a better way to do a global design, what do they sale out of the US, so for that 5% they made a bumper that looks bad to 95% of there sales, not for me, we never had this on the 5th gen, and no clear under the hood? where going backward in design, not a good thing IMO.

TBH I never noticed it on my blue one until I read this post!

I found this odd also, but hey I guess its a character trait of the 6th gen, right?!?

Maybe I never noticed it because my car doesn't have them?

Or, if it does you can only see them when looking really closely at a perfect angle.
