KyleR Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 What about the legality of using vintage style plates? With them being black with white lettering, they would blend in very well with my Kuro Zed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dblock Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 am i the only person who thinks the plate on the grille makes the front of the zed look a bit bizarre? I think the zunsport grille is horrible Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the zunsport grille is horrible I am going to sound biased, but I agree, they do look 'tacked on' - prefer the one I have which you need to attach to the inside of the bumper - just looks a lot cleaner...

ilogikal1 Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 What about the legality of using vintage style plates? With them being black with white lettering, they would blend in very well with my Kuro Zed Definitely illegal unless the car pre-dates the change over to the white & yellow plates (1970... something I think, but I can't remember specifically which something at the moment. ).

I'm not a fan of the zunsport either to be honest. Something doesn't look just right. Each to their own though. If the owner likes it then that all that matters Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spursmaddave Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 I think the black zunsport on a grey car doesn't look right. Glrnet has a silver one on his Azure and I have a black one on my Azure both look good in my opinion but somehow black on grey doesn't sit right, maybe the silver would look better of if the lip below the grille was black too....

Yup, you're right, did a bit of googling and the switchover was 1/1/73. However, I can not find any reference from the DVA/DVLA/ETC about the plate having to be a solid plastic plate. Just mentions spacing, sizing etc and reflectiveness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Finstella Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 Hmmmm....... I have just bought my first little baby and am looking to get her tip top. The front bumper needs a re spray, how much should I be looking at for it? Gunmetal grey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
squit Posted March 29, 2012 Author Share Posted March 29, 2012 mine cost £300 but then they filled the badge and installed the new grill for that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
