Default Euro front license plate

Hi,

I have a really bad paint problem on my front bumper that I can cover up with a Euro license plate. (It's just the right size).

I know there are a couple of 964 owners from Europe... Are there any special mounting brackets that I need to do this? On eBay, there are a few plates that come with a frame... are those standard? Do I need a special one for my 91' 911?

Thanks a lot!

Mark

Not sure about Quebec, but you need to expose your front license plate numbers in Ontario or get fined $100. Some states also require front plates exposed as well.

I think that Ontario and NB are two of the last provinces requiring front plates.

I think British Columbia has the same problem!

I'm fine in Quebec...

Bon jour, Mark;
I purchased my euro front plate and mounting frame from this fellow in Germany:
http://www.grtpl8s.com/
Plate was US$19.99 and frame was $10.99. Very nice guy; he even uses a photo of my car on the front page of his website. (No affiliation, honest!)
IMHO, the 964 looks much better with the Euro plate than with the N. American or just an empty indentation in the bumper.
Cheers
