European Front License Plate Frame

Now that my M5 is back from European Delivery, I have two choices regarding the front license plate issue. Tennessee doesn't have a front license plate, so I either have to fill the holes and paint, or continue using my front license plate from Germany, which I like.

My question is, can I purchase a frame for this plate (it's wider, and shorter than the back plate), and where?

thanks

Richard,
I plan to drop by the BMW dealership on Frankurter ring when I pick up the wife's 330 cic this November to get some of those freebie German dealer's licence frame. If you can wait, I'll get an extra one and send it to you.

Other than that, I don't know any other way to get an "euro" License frame.

call me a perfectionist, but I had the front bumper fixed and repainted to get rid of these ugly little holes. Excellent job. Whether it justifies the $500 is left to everybody's own judgement.
