There are no stupid questions but try www.vwvortex.com and use the search function in their forums to get best results for what you are looking for, I usually go there before asking here, and if it comes to it *gulp* ill ask a question on there

I use doublesided 3m tape, works great

This is how I did it, took a few times before i perfected the mounting of the plate. I was really satisfied with the hold, very strong and sturdy. Then I got sick of my europlate and ripped it off, had a nice fun time on a cold day peeling of the tape in chunks. I'll use a blow dryer next time.

Nah you're not the only one. I do the same thing. The plate covers the holes in the bumper anyways so why not

Semi Off-Topic:

Who carries 3M Heavy Duty Velcro in town??? Checked out Home Depot/Auto-Value/Canadian Tire/Wal-mart, and was unable to find velcro roll/strips.

I assume it comes in a roll just like the double sided tape?

Any help would be appreciated.

Meh...I just drilled 4 holes and used waffer screws to hold it in. I'm going to be swapping my Jetta front end for a Golf front end in the next few weeks so I hope he doesn't mind my little holes

Re: Euro Plate install

Home Depot has real heavy duty Velcro that comes as strips in a cardboard box. The glue is real strong and is a real b***h to remove it later.
