mattbowey Posted April 7, 2010 Author Share Posted April 7, 2010 hmmm, struggling to find what i'm looking for on craigs plates, maybe i'm just being a n00b though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rtbiscuit Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 i just ordered USDM ones from there as well as UK rear. do you know what size you want, Measure the bracket, then find the plate size. can all be done on the plate builder part. or ring them and get a custom size made up for yourself.

mattbowey Posted April 7, 2010 Author Share Posted April 7, 2010 sounds like a plan now, wheres the tape measure? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IanS16 Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 I'd look into getting the JDM plate for the rear and cut down UK plate for the front, it looks much neater IMO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattbowey Posted April 7, 2010 Author Share Posted April 7, 2010 you mean a straight plate for the front rather than a square one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IanS16 Posted April 8, 2010 Share Posted April 8, 2010 you mean a straight plate for the front rather than a square one? Yup, my car is in my signature and its a JDM You just need to remove the JDM numberplate bracket from the front then stick a numberplate over the two big holes that are left.
