Bought mine from europlates.com ...you can do a custom job if you want. Cost was about $55 for everything including the $10 for the frame. Didn't bother to get the hardware b/c i took it to my dealer and they mounted it for free (though i did have to get it screwed in :( )

 

I ordered from them as well, along with the frame + mounting hardware, and love the way it came out! Arrived relatively fast and I like the fact that it's stamped aluminum, like a real plate, rather than vinyl.

Also had to screw into the bumper, both the two 'dimples' in the middle and two a bit further out. That was only necessary because I wanted a really fitted look though. The curvature of the front bumper makes the relatively long plate frame stick out at the ends without the two additional screws.

Here's a pic (sorry for the dirt and low quality; weather was horrible):

 

I sorta prefer the plastic plates. Like the kind your find for most of the plates in the British Isles. Has anyone ever found a vendor that sells them?

 

I've definitely seen at least one person here on NAM with them. I believe it's user kevinminiaddict, or something like that. Try searching the 'show me your euro plate' thread and you should be able to get more info.
