Try www.germanplates.com

They're good..they delivered in a very timely manner...you can get a new custom plate, or a real, used plate. But I'm pretty sure they break the seal (tag) when shipping it out because of the law and exporting the plate and/or car.

I put a german plate on my 02 a4, but the plate itself isn't flush with the bumper, how'd you guys make it flush, did you drill for the holes?

Anyone know the law in California of replacing the front with a German version of your CA plate?

I think I got the same problem,
I have 03 a4, but the tag seems not perfectly fit, and I dont really want to drill another hole on bumper,
how you guys deal with it? and anyone try 3M tape, or use the frame?

I've heard of people drilling holes in the actually german license plate itself so it aligns with the stock holes... that way you don't have to hurt your car.

I bought Rare Earth Magnets from http://www.kjmagnetics.com/. I plan on hot gluing about 4 spaced out behind the german plate in the platic frame.Once I put the plate up to the front of the car the other four existing magnets will snap into place inside the bumper cover and I will proceed with gluing those in place as well. I haven't done this yet so it may sound easier said than done. we'll see.

Thes magnets are very strong! I dont have any holes in my bumper cover for a license plate bracket and really don't want to drill through it either. This will be a very easy way for me to remove my german plate for cleaning or any other reason.

Just my 2 cents!
