There used to be several people who made front license plate delete panels for E30s and other cars, but I don't think anyone is still doing them. I have access to a high quality 3D printer, and I'd like to make some of these for the community. Is there still any interest, or did people stop selling them because there's no market?
Initially they will be installed with double stick tape and will just say "BMW." I may branch into custom lettering or mounting with bolts into the license plate mount holes in the future.
The material is carbon fiber reinforced nylon that is very tough, but flexible enough to conform to the curve of the front bumper trim. It can be primed and painted, left as-printed, or you can block sand the letters smooth and leave the main part of the plate as-printed for contrast. The price will be on the order of $50 per panel plus shipping.
I'm going to print a test part tonight, and will post more pics after. Sound off if you're interested, and I'll start moving forward with buying material and such.
