I put black FatMat foam in the holes. It contours nicely and looks better than an empty hole. However, I like the tie-down idea since those in the cargo floor are not placed very conveniently. Black tie downs like those above are going on my next Amazon order!
Those are what I used...cheap and effective.
I don't have anything covering them up....removed the seats, threw the Heritage edition cargo mat in there and called it good. Figured I might eventually come up with something to cover up the metal piece if it bothered me but it really doesn't. But then I realized I have a slight issue in the form of a rattle coming from the rear cargo area. I thought it might be the plastic tailgate piece (that part that bridges the gap from tailgate to cargo area when tailgate is open) but it seems to be the passenger side plastic panels. It's as if the passenger side 3rd row seat and trim piece pressed down on that wheel arch panel and once I removed it, the panel just rattles enough to be annoying at certain times. I can replicate the sound by tapping on various areas, and I don't hear the same sound coming from the driver's side when doing the same, so I'm pretty sure that's it. But so far I've been unsuccessful in my attempts to stop it....stuffing foam and microfiber towels in various places just trying to narrow it down so that I can then come up with a more elegant solution. It seems like it would be an easy fix but I am getting fairly frustrated with it at this point. If any of you have noticed the same and solved the problem, I'd love to know what you did!

Yeah, I have no intention of taking it to dealer. It’s not that big a deal...just a little rattle at low speeds. Totally covered up by road noise and radio at speed. But I know it’s there and I’ll figure out a fix eventually. I already have some adhesive foam around the edge of that removable trim panel at right rear. That did nothing. I really think it’s the large panel over wheel well, so that’s where I’m going to focus.
Yeah, I covered mine with drawers as well.
I'd like to see how spray foam works for you... spray it in, contour it, and paint it.
