Headlights look great, I'd be tempted to put a shorter plate on as you only have 5 digets, you cannot chop the ends off as you'll loose the BS number but can get one made up and only need 10mm of white down the sides IIRC, will clean the front up no end.

Nice improvement although I can still see orange in the headlights, Would some silvatec bulbs not have been a better option?

Where can get smaller number plates that are still legal?
And is it confirms that you only need 10mm in the white area around the number and letters?
Want good quality ones, front and rear.
Cheers.

11mm is the border required, not 10.
