I don't know why but I think flaps in the exhaust are a little fem too. If you want a loud exhaust just nut-up and own it. 'course my car has a remote control top so I'm probably a little weak on street cred here |

We did well on the price. We were going to order and use a allocation they have and a deal fell through on this one so they dealt with us pretty good in order to keep the allocation for somebody. We traded in a 2011 335 x-drive - only had about 15,000 miles on it. We actually leased this one. First time I have leased a car, but the last three cars that she has been the primary driver have been traded in after 3 years with less than 20,000 miles. So we thought we would do this and save some cash. It seems like we trade cars every three years anyway. I really sod like being out o warranty o these things.

Now your plan to move it above the low point of the bumper sounds ideal -- please post pics when able and let us know your post-install satisfaction!

Can you elaborate - guess I am missing something but where is the space at the top of the lower mesh? Do you plan to cut out a section or....?

Yes there will be some modification performed. The bumper will probably be removed for reinforcement of the mount. I will post pictures of the process for all of those interested.

On that note does anyone know if USMillWorks have a setup that works on the M4 - think I saw a pic with one installed but their site does not seem to specify and I have yet to hear back from them on it?

I guess for me those off center tow hook mounts looks worse than the standard center mounted plates. Just not a solution for me It totally messes up the feng shui of the front end. I would go with the magnet our hidden plate solution but only if the time comes that I get a ticket or two something I have not gotten in nearly 10 years driving without one in Texas.

US Millworks bracket
F80 M3 is listed in the options on their website, both with and without parking sensors (see special note for sensors).

Ah - they list M cars under the 4-Series moniker - I was expecting a M category in this menu - thanks for the correction!

I PMed Andrew at IND about painted front license plate holders but, surprisingly, there did not seem to be any interest. Feel free to pile on IND.

hm, that seems like a lot of trouble just to james bond your plate ... maybe instead you could hire Steven Hawking to figure out how to dematerialize/rematerialize it? Quantum mechanics says there's only a probability it's actually there anyway.
