Anybody Remove a Front License Plate Holder? - The Unofficial BMW M5 Messageboard (m5board.com)

Hello everyone,

Newbie here, just ordered a car from up north and it has the front license plate. I'm from Florida and it's not necessary here. Has anyone removed the plate? If so. Do you have to re-paint the front? or do they sell clips or some sort of inserts?

Thanks in advance.

I ordered bumper plugs from bumperplugs.com. I had them on my Porsche. Perfect match.

Is there anyway to ask them not to put on the front LP holder? If not, plugs are available.

Awesome! Thank you. and btw it's already on. But at least I don't have to repaint.

I never put my front bracket on when it came in. its still in the trunk along with the front license plate. dealer gave it to me to put on when my permanent tags came in.
