Front Plate Bracket
Does anyone have a MOP for installing the factory front plate bracket on a 2024 760? My search skills have failed me as most online guides are for the third-party brackets. Would have the dealer install it, but got burned once by having it done not level, and my OCD couldn’t handle it.

I'd have to believe that your dealer's less than perfect job (if this indeed WASN'T your OCD talking) was merely an anomaly. Who's to say it won't be done correctly if you or a professional attempts it next? Anybody can make a mistake. Ultimately it might be best for you to simply have some inherent trust in your dealer. By MY eye, my dealer did mine perfectly (although, uh, I didn't apply a laser to it). If you're still dead set against it, well, best of luck then.

i saw them mounting the bracket - they aligned it to the milimeter
hint: as i have a system to change the plate, it's like >20mm thick - they told me that because of the radar it's best to mount it the lowest possible. |

I dented mine and the dealer replaced it perfectly, but then it was level when first installed. Sounds like the dealer violated first rule of craftsmanship: "Measure twice, cut once"
