Hey folks, did this sell in the end? I guess in any case, if I could get a few dimensions off of it, I could very likely make a 3d model for folks to 3d print their own basic replacments (euro and us spec versions just by stretching). Seems like this is a niche folks are looking to have filled, even if we can't all justify this beautiful OEM one that I'm hoping someone is going to enjoy :-)
Still interested, I'll get in touch in a few weeks...too many R53 irons in the fire at the moment!

I used to install these for free on my clients’ cars with the aerokit to have euro plates with the name of my shop on their cars. Free advertising as our province doesn’t use front plates. Originally Posted by Chamberlin1

I bought so many of them back in the days.
Oh wow, that's really cool. We don't have front plates in my state either. I'm restoring an "OEM+" JCW Checkmate Aero right now that's getting Recaros from the UK, amber tail lights, and a GP1 transplanted drivetrain (among other OEM+ mods). I also have a stock Checkmate JCW that is getting the exact same Euro front plate from the BMW/MINI Checkmate press photo shoot in 2005 (already acquired). That's why I wanted to also get the Euro plate for my OEM+ Checkmate JCW Aero.
