NO, just no to the Amazon & Sly No drill plate frames. Those are flat like a board which would look about as good as a rusty steel wheel on my SL550.
Here is the existing US plate bracket - notice it has a shallow V shape? Put a Euro plate on there with a straight frame - mind as well use the US Bracket and mount with Duct Tape

One can always appreciate a quick and timely response to a post
Does anyone have the part # for the bracket or mount to allow mounting a euro front license plate on the GTS?
Purely for cosmetic reasons I'd like to use my custom Euro front plate on my US car.
Hi,
If you want to mount the EG size, I recommend a self-made mount.
This allows you to install the (now curved) shield at a negative angle (approx. 15 degrees).
Follows the contour of the cooler opening nicely.
I take it from your avatar, you need for an Edition 1 = until 2016?
(Facelift needs different mounts)
There are several ECE versions. Which country do you need?
To make it complete:
Mexico / Asia: A190 880 03 44
China : A190 880 06 44
Cost around $50 - $90
If you want to buy one. I recommend the Swiss version.
Had my (german) GTR as a factory option. Surcharge for this: 450 USD !!! Usury :-) .(Replaced now by self-made)
Pros:
You don't have to drill any holes outside of the US bracket. (Could maybe fit?) And you can also mount a US shield?
This is the smallest I know. Area approx. 3.1" x 11.8 " (Germany: approx. 4,3 " x 20.5 ")
The number plate can protrude beyond the holder. Just the other way around seems strange. :-)
Recommend invisible Velcro for attachment. (I've been taking it for years)
