I just got a German EU license plate off of e-bay. It's very nice but it's too wide to fit between the bumperettes on the front bumper. How do you mount them in Germany? Anyone?

How do you mount them in Germany? Anyone? sorry, but that ain't no real license-plate <_< the real LP's start with 1,2 or 3 letters indicating the city, followed by a random set of letters followed by a randon set of numbers. they come in 2 sizes: (IMG:http://www.kennzeichen.org/euro.gif) 520 * 110 mm and: (IMG:http://www.kennzeichen.org/zweiz.gif) 340 * 200 mm oh, and btw. european cars don't have tits!

Well I knew it wasn't real. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif) I ordered it custom to to say what it says from the seller. Isn't it true that Stuttgart cars plates begin with "S"?
Are the tits molded on the bumper or bolted on? I tried to wiggle them and they're on solid. I couldn't reach my hand up far enough behind them to feel for a bolt. Anybody ever taken the tits off before? |

Tits are off, plate is on. Slapped some Por 15 on the bumper while I had it off, too.
