Hi and good morning members!

My problem today is :


I don't want to put the license plate on the new front bumper, but maybe I will need to install it for 2-3 hours .
Obviously I don't want to hole the bumper so I'm searching for a good glue but that can be removed completely (by an hairdryer ?) and without scratches .
The alternative would be reinstall the Mtech front bumper, but now the new one fit so well that I prefer to keep it on and find a cheat for the license .



Thanks, bye!

OfficeDepot may not have stores in Italy but a similar automotive emblem mounting tape is probably available at your local automotive accessory shops.

Basically it's a very strong and weather-resistant double sided tape similar to what is used to mount emblems on your BMW. I used it to mount my front tag because I didn't want holes drilled into the bumper either!

Uh, thankss, I will charge the bodyshop to search for it
This morning I mailed and told him "I refuse to believe that we build the ISS and you can't find a way to attach it without ruining the bumper"

Found the 3M, will see
Bye!
