A guy at our euro meet has a euro plate. He has been driving around with it for 2 years without much problems. Hes been pulled over before but never got a ticket, he has it on his e30.

I think I want to risk it...if the popo pulls me over I'll just have the real plate in the trunk...

I've seen german plates under US plates before. Looks weird with two plates installed but I guess if you wanted to show off the german plates you can just remove the US plates pretty easily.

That's actually what I plan on doing...I would find a way to clip the US plate over the Euro plate so depending where I am, I can change it to US.
