$25/paypal shipped and I'll dig up my OEM one...not a clue what it's worth or how much shipping is, but it's been sitting in my toolbox since I got the car.

Agh...upon closer inspection mine has a slight bend in it...guess I may have closed the toolbox drawer on it a while back.





Still functional, and still sits on the bumper...but if you're a perfectionist it may drive you crazy....I'll drop it to $20 shipped...

LMK.

I've got a front plate bracket. It's meant for W211's. Took it off and unfortunately was left with 5 or 6 nice holes in the front but I have it just sitting around.

Yeah I know it's a little fudged up but you can have it for $5 plus the shipping. I have no use for it.

This is something that I don't want to do it !!.... (plate bracket) but now you can see some sings in town saying "front plate is required by law" or something like that... like "click it or ticket", about install in the front mesh... I have a k40 radar right on the center of my lower center mesh... drill to holes in my bumper will be a terrible !!
