i think i'm gonna throw in the towel on getting the us millworks mount to work here. it's one part they're terrible at responding to email, and one part it doesn't even look all that good on this car:



So -- what are the screws for defacing my front bumper? Real oem shows the plate mount, but not the screws used -- https://www.realoem.com/bmw/enUS/sho...diagId=51_A673

I used the strong Velcro tape that comes on the ez pass unit to mount my plate.

My intent was to suggest an alternative to drilling holes in the bumper. If you go that route, most self-tapping screws should do the job.

i don't see it coming off before the lease is up, and with the us millworks route a dead end, no reason to overcomplicate things for me. thanks though.

Interesting... I need a new front plate mount and have decided to go just go with drilling the holes.
I tried to do what crst4s did but the mount ended up sagging a bit since the square holes aren't directly behind where the mount presses against the bumper.
Maybe if I order the part (since I broke off the tabs and drilled a few holes in it) and it comes with screws maybe I can send them to you.
OR
what would be better if someone on here is willing to part with their kit (mount+screws) I'll send you the screws fo free

tl;dr anyone willing to part with their oem front plate kit? I'll pay for shipping
