Front License Plate

This was a huge issue for folks that took delivery at the Welt (335i in 2008 for me) as Germany requires a front plate and some states (mine -Florida) does not. We wanted to make sure that whatever they did to the front bumper to hold the plate wouldn't be permanent.

Is there anything special that has to be requested when ordering to ensure no front license plate bracket is attached to a new Z4? Florida owners - you know what I'm talking about!

this is a dealer-installed item. My dealer has a practice of not installing ANY front plate brackets (here in NJ, front plate is REQUIRED) knowing that most owners do not want the bracket installed. They will only install the bracket when your plates & registration come in and you specifically ask for it to be installed.

Might be a dealer thing but have never requested no front plate & have never gotten one from a number of dealers or BMWPCD.

NC is a no front plate state.

Germany doesnt make holes

ED cars have the front Germany license plate attached with velcro and tape. No holes.
