Install your front license plate WITHOUT drilling holes in your MINI! This ingenious PLATYPUS PRO SERIES license plate bracket uses the front tow hook attachment point for a nice clean look.

New and Improved design with:

[ ] Threads built into the plate making it easier to attach the license plate
[ ] The whole plate has steel backing so that it does cannot be bent
[ ] The plate is angled to match the bumper
[ ] Only 7-pieces in the kit to greatly simplify installation (the plate and 2 pieces of hardware, and 4 screws for the plate)

This kit uses the 3.5" bolt.

A newly updated design allows the plate to mount at an 'angle' which allows it to sit closer to the bumper.

Fitment

Designed for the following models:

2011-2013 R56 Cooper and Cooper S Hatchback
2011-2014 R55 Cooper and Cooper S Clubman
2011-2015 R57 Cooper and Cooper S Convertible
2012-2015 R58 Cooper and Cooper S Coupe
2012-2015 R59 Cooper and Cooper S Roadster

For other Gen 2 MINIs, see G2NMX7307.

For the R60 COUNTRYMAN, see G2NMA2510.

What's the difference between this 'PLATYPUS' G2NMX7300 unit and the 'No Holes' NMA2501 unit?

We get this question asked a lot - functionally, they both work very well. Many people make their selection based on their personal preference for the material and finidh - Powdercoat Black vs. Stainless Steel. The Platypus Pro uses far fewer pieces, greatly simplifying the installation. Either way, they are both great products.
