Description
My state requires a front license plate and BMW Z3 front license plate holes are made for a European license plate vs the US. I wanted to develop some brackets that would allow you to utilize the existing holes in the bumper and not have to add any additional holes. Came up with a left and right bracket angled to clear the pointed bumper and use the existing holes. I used plastic wall anchors inserted into the existing bumper holes then screw the bracket down on each side. Attached the license plate and add holes for nuts and bolts. I printed in petg with the big flat side flat on the plate, I have another plate holder I did in petg and so far it appear to be holding up, you could also print in ABS for even higher temp but not sure its needed.
