Haha ya the zip ties are temporary(need to install my plate holder - then my plates - so no zip ties are showing but I am keeping it there).
BUT anything is better than blocking the intercooler and drilling into my bumper!!!
And I've heard/researched that getting the tow hook plate has 2 disadvantages 1. It's to close to the bumper and can scratch 2. People can steal it

I had a tow hook plate bracket on my 135i and loved it. As for stealing, it's not like it's any more difficult for someone to steal plates by unscrewing a couple screws from a regular plate holder. No one ever messed with mine in the 3 years it was on my car.
My R had the bumper bracket installed when it arrived at the dealer. I didn't order the car so i obviously didn't get a chance to tell them not to drill the bumper. Oh well. I can live with it.

[IMG][/IMG]NW DC here. Just picked up my RB 4-dr loaded yesterday. Street parking sucks, but I've been relatively lucky the past two years with my GTI, so fingers crossed for the R.

Anyone know of a mod friendly dealer in the DC/Balt/Nap triangle area?
I need to schedule my 90 day check up and I'm concerned that Darcars in Silver Spring would not look kindly on my GIAC tune. They were great to deal with when I bought the car, but I put some feeler questions out about mods when I picked up my plates and the answers I got were not encouraging.
