jub Posted April 9, 2010 Share Posted April 9, 2010 Hi guys, Some idiot hit me the other day. Had some paint come off the front bumper and therefore needs a respray. Whilst doing that I was thinking of filling the number plate holes and putting a square plate on, towards the side, in front of the grill. Just wondering if anyone's done this? Couldn't find pics online. Best I found was the one below, but it's got the long plate. Any advice is much appreciated. Cheers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jub Posted April 9, 2010 Author Share Posted April 9, 2010 I've just done this[attachment=0]Image002.jpg[/attachment] Looks pretty neat. Where did you get the holder from? If it's on a holder that is... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nixy Posted April 9, 2010 Share Posted April 9, 2010 you mean like an import plate? Personally prefer the uk sized plate on the front but stuck above the grille onto the front bumper. Not seen one done to the side on a zed and don't think it would look right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stew Posted April 9, 2010 Share Posted April 9, 2010 Shauns white one was like that when he bought it, was a UK plate but small. There are pics on here of it here viewtopic.php?f=34&t=34309&p=512008#p512008 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Found a pic of what it might look like, not a great example though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jub Posted April 9, 2010 Author Share Posted April 9, 2010 Not sure if I'm missing something here, but that looks like the standard UK placement? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nixy Posted April 9, 2010 Share Posted April 9, 2010 yeah it is, just stuck higher up. Most people try to get rid of the square one on the front to be honest, but not everyone likes to be the same! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jub Posted April 9, 2010 Author Share Posted April 9, 2010 IMO no on the side, prefer itin the middle Someone on here with a blue Zed has a better pic That looks nice actually. Which bracket is that using? Also, where did you order your plate from? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alessandro Posted April 9, 2010 Share Posted April 9, 2010 Got the plate for Craigplates but you can also use demon plates, the plate its not on a bracket but one the motorised plate holder, let me look around for the member with the blue Zed and he'll be able to help re brackets Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nrenz123 Posted April 9, 2010 Share Posted April 9, 2010 I have a plate holder available that will give an almost identical look for £25 delivered. I have them for uk size plates but can get them made for jap ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
