Thats one nice ass

I bought my car from Hassel BMW in LI but I serviced it near me at BMW WWOC. Hassel put on those horrible dealer plastic plates and after servicing I noticed WWOC put theres on there. I was like wtf .

This thread reminds me I must take them off (back and front). Ill probably get a color matched plate frame from www.bavauto.com. Im going to try to go no plate in the front when I put the acs kit on...I need some new 08/09 PBA cards to do that though.

....tried this method for years until I had the corner of my license plate ripped off with metal clippers. They used to (and probably still do) steal the registration stickers off the plates. It was easier to just tear off the entire corner of the plate than to actually peel off the sticker.

After that incident, no more frameless for me. It was a big racket in Philly. You'd see license plates everywhere with the bottom corners clipped off. Since then, PA has moved the sticker to the top corner of the license plate, but I am sure it still happens.

...type too fast for my own good some times

"...you can get a ticket for no front plate while parked..." didn't ask how I got from there to what I actually typed
