Here in the Commonwealth of Virginia we are required by law to have a front and rear license plate.

On my F80 M3 I used the tow cap mounted holder and, while the offset through off the symmetry of the car, I thought it looked just fine.

Just took delivery on a Black Sapphire X7 4.0 and, as always, told the dealer not to trill holes for the front plate bracket.

Now that I'm looking at the car, I'm not even sure how the place would fit in the front. Between the PDC sensors, the grill, and the adaptive cruise control sensors/tech there's not where to put a US sized license plate. Notice how all the market photos show it with a European style front plate.

Anyway, just wondering what y'all are thinking of doing. Photos would be helpful. I'm debating between letting them drill, using 3M double sided tape (there is an Xpel crest bra over the entire front end of the car so I would risk damage to the paint with this option), or using another tow hook mounted bracket.

Thoughts???
