I searched this topic, but I guess I still have one question... Why does it seem like everyone who has this euro rear plate filler, they're us plate hangs below where it's supposed to? mine has 4 screws to attach, does the euro filler make the mounting points lower, or disables the use of the 4 us plate mounting holes. I'm a little confused. Also, could someone post some pics of the plate filler? and... I have a sterling silver 1990 325i with a black "is" trunk spoiler, what do you guys think about the plate filler on my car? yay or gay? thanks,

Maybe some more pictures would help:
Remove that trunk liner, and knock those plastic screw holders out of there!
Get some nice hardware to secure plate. A flathead bolt, some washers, and some nuts do great.
Drill a hole for the bolts. Line up to space first and mark before of course.
Mount. Put bolt through license plate, through filler, through body, then put the washer and nut on, then re-install liner.

In the later syles, the spot for the license plate is just as tall as the head lights.- Sean Hayes

Because US plates are gay. (I've been thinking of what would happen if i trim the lower part of my plate off.....and cut, trim, and reconnect the plate frame to hide the trickery.......of course that is a lot of work for not much change)
