Get this. My X doesnt have any stickers on it because I did PCD. The PC installed the front plate bracket that I unfortunately have to have.

When I moved to a front plate state from a state without, I took my Pontiac into the local dealer and asked for a front plate bracket thinking they would be more than happy to attach advertising. They told me it would be $75. I laughed and walked out, never to return. Lived in Nebraska for 4 years and never once got stopped for not having that front plate.

So basically, if you dont want their advertisement, they will go out of their way to make sure it is on the car. If you do want it, you have to pay for it.

I never had to ask that they NOT advertsie on my car. They delivered it without any dealer advertisment and I have never asked for it.

While I love my dealership.... I am not going to me a moving billboard for them.

You mean PC will put the front plate even if you ask them not to?

We bought a Z4 and we are a two tag state.

We made it VERY clear NOT to drill holes in the front bumper and to leave the bracket in the trunk.

They did as we requested.

You have to be aware that the buyer may be registering the vehicle in a one tag state.
