Pressed plates if I get them without the surrounds I guess I can use double sided sticky pads to fix them.

But I do like the look of the Surrounds, how many screws do they use and how easy are they to fit ?

Yeah you could use double sided tape mate but i think they look a lot better with the holders/surrounds. I just drilled my holders to the same holes that were in my bumper. Screw the holder on, bash the plate in, simples 8)

Depends how they are held on yours mate. Different garages fix plates differently when the PDI the car. If you can see some screws then you will have a hole in the bumper. Otherwise they will be stuck on. i think a lot of people screwed the front and stuck the back but both of mine are screwed.

13s look ok on a 6n if it's slammed but on a 6n2 it would look ridiculous, il try help you find some wheels mate, how much would you be looking to spend max ?.
