Get the BMW brand Carbon Fiber (genuine) "slim-line" frames. They are thin, very trick, and 100% C/F. I have them on my 991 Cab. About $ 100 each

The noPhotos do require some wiring but it is pretty straightforward, especially if your car is equipped with a rear parking camera. You can view our wiring tutorial here. I would recommend the updated noPhotos for your car as they include a housing for the wiring's quick disconnect, that is much more aesthetically pleasing.

Advance Auto Parts carries a thin "black chrome" frame which when matched with their slightly convex clear lexon cover gives a great finished look that in the front matches the headlight covers' look. On my Agate car the color is also most a perfect match. My rear diffuser fits right below the top frame's lip.

The highest quality ones I have found are made by Camisasca. They make the OEM ones for Porsche and BMW. Here is a link to view the available finishes in type you are looking for ("Classic Plain Frames") pages 3 and 4. Also note the "Security Caps" on page 5 of "License Plate Frame accessories".

They are available here: http://www.sheepskinoutlet.net/page/142183 and sometimes on Amazon if you search for Camisasca.

That's the best option i've seen so far, especially at that price.
I just got the super thin ones, four holes, powder coated black, with hardware kits.
