Default Front Plate Bracket Removal

Does anyone know if this (see image) is able to be removed or replaced? I'm not having much luck finding relevant info online. I took the license plate and holder off since my state doesn't require it.

negative. There is a plain one though. Dull finish rather than gloss.

I looked at swapping to the 'blank' trim piece for same reasons, but it wasn't worth it...it looks just fine in front after removing plate holder hardware. Definitely remove all the old plate hardware and reevaluate before you decide to remove one piece of plastic, just to put another piece of overpriced plastic in it's place.

If it were me, I'd just run something cool /personalized in the front plate carrier.

Default Option B

Since it has the holes for an American front plate, would I need an adapter to do a euro style vanity plate?

They have a whole different filler plate for euro tags.

Knockoffs are pretty cheap on eBay.

Search in this forum and you'll find a trading thread for these. Lots of states require the front plates and others like mine don't so I traded mine to another user in Delaware for his.
