how do european mount their license plates?

To our European friends:
I was just curious about how your license plates get mounted on the car. From see all the pics in car magazines and internet, I notice that there are no screw holes in those license plates. Are they magnetic, snap-on or velcro? Thanks

see GoMiniGo.com for one option.

some Euro front license plates are stickers.

Most you don't see the screw holes because the plate holders use a folding snap system. So the screws are on the holder not the plate. The plate sits inside the holder when you snap the folding mechanism on the holder shut.

good one saprissa!

stickers are rare, aswell as magnetic plates. They can be screwed on the front aswell. The 5 series requires that!
