Front numberplate holder

dazza88 · 11-18-2012, 05:18 AM

Not exactly a technical question but I'm putting my personalised plate of my 330d today but I've seen some cars on here with out the numberplate holder that sticks out and make the bumper look much more smooth.

If I remove my plate holder from my 56 plate car will I be left with any nasty holes. I will be using the sticky pads to stick the new plate on not screws.

In a nutshell - yes.

Hopefully the new plate will hide the holes.

Pre LCI cars have the stepped holder. Post LCI cars have the plate just screwed directly Into the bumper, this is why you'll have noticed the difference.
