      I voted no. The visual dissonance afforded by rolling sans plate filler could be considered modern art.

      Also, a European plate filler without European bumper trim is like having Kool-aid, no sugar. Peanut butter, no jelly. Ham, no burger.

          I voted YES so I can feel more confident in sporting one. Plate fillers are also great for covering up botched rust repair jobs around the license plate lights.

            I said yes, but IMO there are some cars that just look better without them. It just depends on the car itself.

              Yes to the plate filler, get rid of the "alumni" plate cover, it just doesn't look right at all unless you have the US plate filler, the Euro Plate filler has too much open space for it to look right.

                Damn, I forgot I bought one of these a while ago and haven't put it on. Off to the garage.

                  That alumni frame is gone. I'm rocking the original frame this car came with from the dealership in 1988. Its black and its simple looking.

                    Plate filler definitely looks better. I'll buy it if you wanna get rid of it though :)

                        I definitely agree. I don't understand why we didn't get this one or the american plate filler

                            I vote yes......but not for my car
                            I have a black vert, and other then a few bmw freaks, no one else would notice it and there is probabally only 8 or so e30 owners within 50 miles of me
                            however on light color cars it looks great

                                The top pic with filler is dropped. The lower pic was when I got it back the first week from paint, that was taken prior to drop and several other mods.

                                The top pic + sig pic was taken within several minutes of each other.
