UK plate looks best there and least you know you're not gonna get done again too, plate tilter sounds good as well though as it could then be mounted up in the bumper recess?

The reason I don't wanna use a plate tilter is because I don't wanna get nicked again! I'm doing the Miss Banzai tunnel run next weekend and London will be crawling with police.

I thought about making L shaped brackets to attach the plate in the space in the bumper but I'd rather not get anything else in the way of the rads TBH, the crash bar already covers half the radiators and it's got the chargecooler rad in the way as well...

I would just go with what we have, tie-wrapped in place in the mesh, then removed for the shows.

That would require me to have some mesh Wink I like the exposed rad look (close as I can get to a dirty big FMIC) and a year and a half on it hasn't had a stone through it yet! I think I am going to go for the last of my 3 photos. Thanks for everyones suggestions Smile
