Hopefully I won't get pulled over too much. At least I put my Maryland tag # on it. Maybe it's only 99.99% illegal now.

The plate came from www.autoplates.com. They were the cheapest at $37.95 delivered. Took 2 weeks exactly.

The frame came from Schatz in Germany. Shipping was more than the frame. I paid $87 delivered.

They only offer a generic frame. Notice how this one contours the bumper?

You sir are a genius. This looks amazing. Good find on the frame too, they shipped to you no problem with the language barrier? Yea I was thinking of doing the same and putting my license plate number on the euro plate, I wonder if we would get pulled over for that lol

Could you take some more pics at different angles?
