bumper holes

I've always wondered what these holes on either side of the license plate are for, Anyone know?



Not referring to the mail slot hole above the license plate

After looking behind the bumper cover i see that the top of the hole is part of the bracket that holds it all together. But why the open holes and the plastic cut outs for it?

Bull bar or winch mount bumper probably connects to the frame using the tow hook mounts.
