european licence plate in us

How do I pull this off?

bimmer01 · 06-06-2009, 11:41 AM

I saw some of these for sale on bimmian.com and I also was thinking about getting onc of them. It seems that they come with a mounting bracket but a more expensive OEM type bracket is also offered. My car already has the standard front plate bracket on it, so my thought would be to get some type of Euro bracket that uses the stock mounting holes for the US spec plate bracket. Any thoughts or experience with this?

pull what off? Not getting pulled over for having a Euro plate or not having a CA front plate?

I have a couple for my 1er and run them during shows. You can run it on the front but expect to get some attention from cops. I really like them for shows and meets though.
