^For that reason don't smooth bumpers, or at least ensure you still have an inlay for number plates!^

This is mine :) The plate is screwed to the splitter wich is really tidy now, its not really ideal to tie onto the grill and its common. Hope that helps :wink:

Eh? Whats the big deal? Looks neat enough to me. If you worried about cooling, I really dont think theres any need to. The needle never budges off where it should be.

i've just made a mount out of various b&q parts that mounts the plate in the OEM position, tight to the bumper. jus go to spray it and it's finished. it's cost me too much to make, i've got enough for 2 so am making a second to sell on at under half the price of consturction if your interested
