But did you end up having holes in your bumper? Also, did you get to install these yourself? Or did your car already come with the license plates?

I have see this particular story play out a bunch of times, and I know not only how it ends, but the process by which you GET to the end... and its not usually very pretty or nice. Anyway, enjoy your car! I bought my 20 year old son a Hyundai, because I did not want to buy him a BMW (I could have, but I didnt). For "me" getting a BMW was something special that took me quite a bit off time to work up to, and I wanted him to also have that enjoyment of striving to get something he wanted. We live in southern california, so he needed a car, but I got him a new "transportation econobox" elantra. You say you will keep this car for 10-15 years, but I would bet $100 that you will trade it in before you have it 6 years... because you will see something you want better, than you worked for yourself. if you are 17, the "You" who is 26 is likely going to be a much different position than you are now, and you likely will want to do things your own way. Good luck! |

They install them. They do not use any fasteners on the front - they stick them with thick double sided tape. Rear is installed using a special factory adapter to use the US issue mounting holes. In the old days I would remove them and bring them home with me - they even gave me a little BMW bag to carry them in, but the last time, I was told to leave them on and both were still in place when my car was delivered by the dealer.
