newbie needs help removing front licence plate
Hi!

I was trying to remove the front licence plate last night for my 2006 X5 3.0i. I can easily remove those two screws of the plate holder under the front bumper. Can anyone tell me how to remove other screws if there are any? Thanks!

Just want to remove it from my new X5. It seems lots of people driving without it in SF bay area.

I removed mine in 2 seconds but I drive an 02. There are 4 screws holding the plate onto the front plate mount, then 2 screws holding the plate mount to the front bumper (at least thats how mine was). Once you remove your license plate from the holder you should see the connecting 2 bumper screws to remove it. Hope that helps.

I live near San Francisco CA and my sister has a BMW M3 with no front plates and she goes to San Francisco only occasionally and she got 2 tickets in the mail for no front plates. I think they are pretty strick on it in San Francisco, they give those ticket like a expired meter ticket.
