plumber installed bathtub faucets on the bathtub acrylic side. It looks
horrible, he convinced us to do there cause he said he hasnt seen any
nice installation on the ceramic tiles !!! Now we want it moved to the
original place, but we will be left with 4 1.5" holes to cover somehow
!!!

I found some chrome plugs, but it doesnt look so great, any repair kits
to cover up the round holes ??? Tha company MAAX sells a kit for $200
!!!

Here's a photoshoped pic with the plugs.

you're lucky to have extra holes available for your soap pump, shampoo
pump, tv remote, and rubber ducky. :)

That is a nice looking bathtub and I think it will look good with the
faucet
located in either place. It probably wont be easy to fill the
holes though.

I would glue a piece of ceramic tile trim over the holes and perhaps on
the other end as well. It will make the bathroom look a little classy
and no one will know.

Or fancy ceramic coasters, some kind of candle holders, just improvise. In
the above suggestion, putting them on both ends will give symmetry
reflections this is intentional decor.
