Problem...Euro plates on rear bumper of US 997 TT...

Front one fit fine but rear ones dont, cause if your take off those plastic things (not sure how u call them)...there are big holes it the bumper...

Euro plates are 520mm long...

Anyone know any solution to that problem ???...Besides trying to fill those holes and re-paint the bumper and hope that it wont crack in the future or getting new EURO bumper

take out those 2 bulges and cut and measure the big piece of flat plastic exact size to the bumper, paint that plastic and mount your license plate on it.

in my country, you could just simply ask them to measure the plates to the exact fitting of the car.

There are 2 big more then 2inch holes once you remove butterless or whatever they called...I think some body work will need to be done...
