I purchased this faucet in a kit with a deck plate last month thinking that the additional cover plate would be sufficient to cover the 4" spread faucet that this was replacing. Unfortunately, after removing the old faucet and drain, I found out that the deck plate was too small to cover the holes! After a quick online search and purchase I found a suitable replacement - about 1" wider than the included deck plate. The installation went fine and the look and solid feel of the faucet are great - just a shame about the deck plate.
