Front License Plate

I bought my Z4 used and it didn't come with a front license plate. Unfortunately, it's required here in California. Does anybody have a black front license plate bracket that they don't use and would like to get rid of?
 
Gonna move this to but + sell, but seeing as there is some urgency I will leave the shadow topic (link) in place :D
 
When I bought mine, it did not have a front plate holder either.

I went to the local dealers and bought one. It was about $28.00...

Pre-Facelift is this part number: Licence plate base to 2006/01.............51 11 7 070 263

Facelift is this part number: Licence plate base from 2006/01.............. 51 11 7 158 838

Go to this site to look for all your part needs from BMW.. http://bmwfans.info/original/

Mr IMZ4N also has a removable one, but I doubt he'd be willing to give/sell that one :wink:
 
AHA, so that's how I got in the buy and sell section!!!

Very sneaky Mr. Mod. Trying to get me to spend my money eh you little capitalist! I'm on to you!
 
you should drive around without one.

i got rid of the front license plate on my car and cops never hassled me. the ride looks too nice! the only thing they ever DID get me for was speeding... and they STILL didn't say anything.

It depends on NorCal or SoCal. I didn't use my front plate for 4 years in NorCal and never had problem. You are asking for trouble if you are in SoCal. My son had fix-it and parking tickets for not having front license plate.

They're cops...their IQ doesn't permit them to do two things at the same time (ie, give a ticket and see a missing license plate) :wink:

haha. oh, but, of course! they have nothing better to do than hassle the nice looking drivers during periods of meeting quotas. they suck for that. in the end, though.. we still gotta listen to those little pieces of papers they give us. they suck for that. in florida.... they are there when you don't want them and when you DO want a cop around... they're out & about speeding on the roads trying to get somewhere else.

any cops have a rebuttal?????? :poke:
