Loving the twists

[Dub_Dan]

put it where they normally go i think it would look amazing with a small style numberplate really nice in fact my cousin had it on his sti made it look so much more agressive

Right after alot of abuse on many forums I need to decide what to do with my front plate.
Sooo...
I have my standard size plate and this came last week

Standard height just 300mm long rather than 500 or whatever standard ones are.
So what are people's suggestions?

This is how it is currently

suction pads ? just take it off at cruises and shows ?

[drennan]

Suction pads came off my car but buy them keep them in the car show the polis 1 pad n just say "i thought i could stick it on with these officer but it fell off" worked twice wif me haa
1 more pull tho and im gona try do sumit wif my old foglight surrounds so i can swap my plate on and off

[dood9n3]

Get high power magnets, glue the one side inside bumper by normal slot, glue other end to plate and clip on and clip off as you please

Tim's great idea..

I've used this now and surely you can adapt it with your car

Suction pads won't work very well and ran out of excuses for the police haha hence the plate being on for daily driving. Magnets, not keen on the idea! Suppose it wouldn't be too bad if the magnets were rubber coated or something though. And my plate is held on in a similar way to those brackets in the link just fitted lower down. I did run it something like that for a while then swapped it lower to see which looked better. Think I'm going to try the small plate mounted with brackets to sit in standard place or maybe abit lower like this...

Thanks to ste from un-phased.co.uk for the photoshop!

[drennan]

Will that not effect air getn to the cooler where it is now?

[Harney]

That's only a photoshop. But it shouldn't affect it that much. It's only slightly overlapping the grill. Still plenty of space for air to pass through!
