For those who have to run a front license plate (on the euro bumper), how are you mounting them? I've looked at various mounting brackets, but have not found any that looks like it would work.
Thanks,

If the holes on the rear are the same spacing as those on the front that bracket ought to fit.
It's also worth checking if a front US late model plate bracket will fit.

The rear bracket for the e46 license plate lines up to the holes on the e30 Euro front bumper? Anyone have a picture?

Glad you found a solution that works for you.
This forum is searchable and having as many answers out there is beneficial to everyone.
You also didn't follow up in the thread saying that you had found a solution or not, or even what it was.

Interesting plan of action if I happened to
A. Not live in central NC where there's not a lot of junk yards
B. Not live in central NC where if I owned a mid 80s to mid 2000's Chevy, Dodge, Ford, Honda I'd have zero problem finding a parts car.
C. Not have made this post a month ago and have had a bracket for 3 weeks

tempting, especially since I have like 4 racks of German beer in my HHG thats getting delivered Friday.
But I just scooped up one off ebay. Korman is soo far.

I went with a very simple solution utilizing the plate filler. Simply take the cover off, place your plate in the center of the space, mark the holes, find a very flat short pan head bolt, drill out 2 or 4 holes, secure the bolt with a nut on the front face, reinstall filler, use acorn nuts to secure plate. Now that the prototype works I'll go get aluminum or stainless fasteners to redo the operation.
Will also take a picture or two when able.

I made one from some flat steel stock in the garage. Will take a pic and post.

yes, that's exactly what I'm talking about. I figured it would mount up no problem.
