So it was barely noticeable (which was why I was pulled over) and did not look like it was falling apart at all. In fact, if you look at the picture in my avatar, a plate was in the rear window then.

Is your X5 an import from Europe?
Is that why you the euro style plate are on the X5 and not the state plates or is it just vanity?
I can certainly see why people like the Euro plates better, it sleeker and fits more contour with the cars/SUVs.

I know some who done this.
If the Euro plate are the original, you can send those plates to the License Office and request for state certification on your Euro plates. The cost is the same as Vanity plates.

If I was a cop and saw a vehicle with two plates I would pulled them over too just to find out why and if plates are registered to that vehicle's VIN.

Can you post a pic of the rear view camera at night with the fog lights? Also, is this something the dealer can do or is it going to void some warranty.

I have a friend from Kansas. He loves Chrome on his car. It makes sense.

This X5 looks AWESOME!!!! Definitely one of the best, if not the best, X5 on this forum. Great job!

I think doing mods on cars is a Northeast and California thing--seems more popular there.

absolutely sinister! great looking ride. Agree that the front looks so much better without the plate. That's why I'm installing a motorized james-bondish unit.

Perfect Ten in West Babylon. Owners name is Matt. He does amazing work. He did my M5, my X5, polepositions X5 and his Smart. I've been using Matt for years. A bunch of the M5Board members have been using him for a long time on their cars. I highly recommend him. He's meticulous and very fair with his pricing.

If you go, mention my name and he will take great care of you. My name is Calton.

Matt's number is:

Perfect Ten Auto

PS - If you drive out to him, DO NOT use Nav. It will lead you to a dead end. Call him and he'll tell you how to get to his shop.
