License Plate Bracket
Hey guys,
The 650i cabrio is home and in the garage until spring. One question. One options are there for the front license plate bracket? In Quebec, where the car has lived it's life until now, they don't have a front plate, so there is no bracket installed on the car. I know the dealer will give me one (free) that I can screw into the front bumper, but since I have a nice clean bumper without a bracket, I'd rather find another way to mount the plate. Don't want to use the tow hook spot. If any one has any links, please provide. Thanks...

Not here in Manitoba. Ticket first time and then they can impound your car. Front plate here if you want to drive it.

I don't "want" a front plate, but I have no choice, $110 ticket and they give them out whenever they can. So it's not really an option to drive without it. Sad but true.

Found this tonight...
https://stonsho.com It's removable if you want when you go to a show or event. That doesn't matter so much to me, I just really don't want to drill into the nice bumper, install the BMW plate bracket and then screw my plate on. Thought about using 3M tape to hold the bracket in place, worried it would fall off and I'd lose my personalized plate, which can't be replaced here. Might give this one a go.

Even if there's a 5 percent chance of getting pulled over and a $1 ticket ..still not worth dealing with and getting pulled over

Well that didn't work out. We installed the bracket and then went for a drive. Collision Mitigation Sensor dirty, please clean. I guess the plate is blocking this, even though they said this bracket was designed for the 650i. Maybe a base model one, so now we're back to looking for a solution. I could move it to one side, but I don't like that option. Anyone have any other ideas?? Thx.
