Common sight


Not so common sight. But a much more attractive appearance.


Anybody else see it?

You need a smaller plate like mine.

It's a Mrs front number plate holder which I believe is the same as the mk2 front plate holder.

What about the legality of a sticker type plate.
Always liked the look of those.
First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a socialist.
Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.

I love your plate holder. I just thought they where next to rocking horse poo and hens teeth in terms of availability.

You read my mind.
That is the way I am going.
I had one turn up crap quality. It did not end well. Lost rag and peeled it off and scrunched it up in disgust. Proper spat my dummy out. Was hoping to arrive at the green man with it. It was destined to fail the moment it came out the packing.
Second one much better quality. Trial aligning this afternoon. Just been trimming down and balancing out.
Have much better hope for this one.

If it goes wrong, this is down to the pilot.

I like that. If you're going to cover your car in stickers you can't take it too seriously.

May try that if my stick on plate does not go to plan.

The heavy duty velcro is massively strong I can see that working well.
Would still like the sticker to work.
Post a pic Jason.

Pics will be posted have no fear.
The above were the before and during. Did not get to the after as it all went pete tong.

Weather depending will try the morrow

Pic 2 at the top. Just looks a happy face.
Clean simple lines. No fuss and nonsense. It just works.
Then they had to fit a plate holder that just spoils the line.

Does anyone have a square front plate on a face-lift car? I wondered if that works?

i believe it would. Have considered.

Especially when you get up close and personal to the grill. There is a little central infill panel that can be removed for a plate.

Edit.
Dribble. (needs to be smaller)

Do like that pic. Rims suit it as well.

Interesting front spats on that one.

I am still disappointed though as when I saw that first post I thought Jase had invented a hovercar.

I have.
Just working on propulsion system now.  :-) :-) :-)

Agreed. Quite aggresive front spats. Look good.

Look closely, it's actually a front lip  s:D :D s:D

Some of the facelifts down here have them fitted. They look a bit odd to me from certain angles but not bad in that picture.

Think Japan parts still sell it.
Maybe called the aero lip kit?
Very pleasant to my eyes.

Can't help feel the orange side repeaters let it down.  s:-( :-( s:-(  

Other than that it looks great.

OK folks here goes.

By no means perfect. Perhaps lack of experience. But much better than the first attempt. To me the principle holds just the application. However, the thing to bear in mind the front end has a compound curve. No more chit chat, heres the pic.
