I am keeping the BBS RC's and getting some tires. Hope to keep them for awhile Ok, at least a few months

 

Here are my plates although we traded our black 02 MC in for a Pure Silver R56 MCS so the plate (SXEMINI-2) resides on our new ride.

 

anyone try mounting these via the tow hook or something (in front plate states?)

 

I am so excited about these... came across an earlier thread and headed on over to europlates.com ...Picked one up for my husband.... and one for me. Looks as though in 4 weeks, I will share our latest additions! In the meantime, I will live vicariously through all of you!

 

Mine arrived today, with no mounting instructions. Can someone email or post or tell me how to mount this thing so I don't screw it up. Thanks!

 

jeremy, I thought I had seen that before. I hoped that by starting the thread i would find that person, but not yet. I would like to have a euro and maybe a front plate as well, but not sure if it would look to busy

 

I was also thinking about drilling holes in the bottom of the euro plate that matches the holes in US plates, and screwing/zip tieing the Euro to the US.

 

I installed it w/o the instructions. I used the holes where the US plate attached to and then drilled a couple others myself and used their bolt kit. It's not going anywhere.

 

I ordered one from europlates.com it says "THX-1138" its for his BMW Z4-M

 

Nice, and a great movie too.

 

yeah, my dad LOVES that movie

 

yeah, my dad LOVES that movie he even has his computer name as THX-1138. HE is sick!

 

 

heres my euro plate and shortened recess and smooth bumpers love the euro look



also heres my mates euro saxo with the numbr plate e9uro lol

 

are front euro plates legal in California??

 

i dont believe they would be considered illegal, as long as the proper plates are shown.... front and back

 

So long as you properly display your CA plate I don't see why not? (Although they aren't CARB cert, and probably are known carcinagens lol :P )

 

Here is my real German export plate mounted on an aero kit front.Read full mounting instructions here









Real rear UK plate

 

judging from the pictures, seems like the stickers aren't needed for the front plates?

 

I can speak for California Law, stickers are not on the front plates.. only on the back (month and year)

 

Here's mine...

 

Here is an ok picture of the one I had made.

 

Wahoo!

My new plates are in the mail from europlates.com I will post pictures just as soon as she is ready to go. I chose one with my MINI name 'Firedncer' and the other is a duplicate of my CA plate.. LUV4RFH. For my husband (blumini), a plate to match his MINI name..'blumini'. Not sure if he will use his outside of NAM events

So excited! Thanks for the website

 

Just realized that I never posted a pic pf my new plate. Although I know it's not "authentic", I really like the Union
jack that Europeanplates used...

 

Here's mine
