Pardon the candor, but why the !@#$& would you want to put those awful US required bumperettes on a Porsche?

A shorter plate looks quite nice with a european bumperette-free bumper cover in my not-so-humble-opinion.

Evidently, the grass is always greener on the other side of the pond, eh?

I'm sure you can pick up a pair of salvage bumperettes and affix them to your Euro bumper cover if you really want to do that. I'm just not sure why.

If you do go this route, paint them to match your car's exterior paint color. The unfinished black ones are nasty.

You're mental.

The bumperettes look ****************. The Ynaks would love to lose them and you want to put a set on? You crazy mofo.
