The euro plate is so, shall we say "continental"!

Nice car. Does Mass require a front plate?

Love the stance, but you know what looks better than mass plates or that euro plate? No plate, truth!

Best E90 color...nice car.

I'd recommend streamlining the front end a bit...between the grilles, HL, Fogs, plate, a bit too much going on imho. Get amber corners coded out (so they're only on when the turn signal is on) change the fog bulbs to match your HLs, and black grilles. Then you'd be set.

If anything, that euro plate is causing way more attention than no plate would. With no plate you have some play room with bs excuses like "oh, my frame mount fell off."

Is me or does the back end of the car look like it is sitting lower then the front? Maybe it is just the wheel gap in the front compared to the rear. I always thought the back was a little lower from the factory.

Just lowered with HR springs? Please tell me you did shocks too, it's like having foreplay then not going all the way.

Looks good though, I love the aggresive drop of the HR sports.

You better do shocks, it will ride like a$$. Koni Yellows pair very well with H&R sports, I love mine Set them to 50% (second setting) all around and it smooth like stock but corners 100x better. It will also clean up that front wheel gap. Sorry just a pet peeve of mine when people only do 50% of the suspension
