Very cool wheels!

German? Well, I guess any plate would do for a car based on the design by a Greek, with an engine from Brazil, a parent company from Germany, and assembled in the UK.

Welcome, MiniOwner!!! If you are in the States there was an OEM U.S. plate-sized body-piece that fits in the front plate recess. I have one on my MINI (see gallery). You could probably find one and paint to suit...or get a euro-plate if state laws allow.

Just wonder H7 or D2S? Coz The D2S will only work with the stock HID headlight!

And I think if you put a HID conversion kit in non HID headlight ECU software need to be reprogram to be able to use the HID conversion kit.

Because its from 55w to 35w.

good luck!
