    Not really. There is one standard size for all Europe countries, which is similar to most asian , arabian and Russian countries. And all other number plates, that are different size , are actually smaller. So they should just think about the standard (biggest) size and that will sort it all out.

    You do realize the biggest size will end up with the ugliest front end design

    I've had a removable bracket for both my 456M and 360. I can instantly take it off - the bracket I bought for the 456M also works with the 360 - for shows and track days.

    I'd rather the designers get the front end. We can adapt.

    And is it better LaFerrari owners to put their number plates on the front bonnet then? Everything has a solution. If aftermarket companies can make number plate brackets, so can Ferrari. My Scud front bumper had a perfect number plate place and I wouldn't call that front end ugly. The individual solutions of the owners for resolving this make some cars much more uglier, than if Ferrari would think about this problem.

    And as for the yellow 360 - this is the first time I see a number plate put so wrong... There is a perfect place for it on the front bumper, why the hell not using it?... It restricts the air flow to the LH radiator also...

    The optimal solution may be to install a standardized mounting connection, such as threaded sockets, to allow various different sized brackets to be added or removed from the front. A pair of blank bolts could be inserted to prevent rust of the threaded sockets when no bracket was installed.

    A dealer built front plate brackets for the front of my 328, but they bolted to holes added to the bottom of the front bumper.
    That actually worked out, as the plate hung down enough to be a "curb feeler" -- the plate was the low point on the front of the car.
    I dragged the (Virginia) front plate pretty often, going down ramps in the underground parking garage.
    (I didn't really care if the front plate was a tad bent at the bottom. ;))

    Now that I'm in Tennessee, with no front plate, I was able to remove the plate bracket.
    (But it left a couple of holes in the bottom of the front bumper.)

    The (optional) front plate mounting bracket for my EVO was more problematic.
    If I were to remove the bracket, it'd leave three big holes in the front of the front bumper.

    In all seriousness, 360 view camera when parking as well as security camera when someone approaching the car (like Tesla) will be very nice.

    Also, carbon tub.

    Used in the UK to nick you for speeding :D We do have many forward facing speed cameras. Other than that I see no need. Motorcycles are exempt from front plates because riders coming off over the front, I suspect have a habit of slicing body parts off on them.
