Default Blobeye - front plate mounting ??

Guys the front plate holder on my blobeye is only around 14" long not sure if this is standard as there is a few additional front spoilers on the car - possibly the sti kit ?? as the car I bought had a small 5 digit plate already fitted the plate was cut down to fit nicely to the size off this raised holder. as this plate will soon be replaced by a 7 digit plate I can no longer run a smaller oblong plate and so my choices are legal square or legal oblong.

does a full length plate fit okay on this 14" mount, surely will look a bit odd sticking out so far either side ?? if fitting a square plate then its going to stick down restricting the air intake grill, is this a problem and should be avoided ??

could get away with a nice 13" by 7" plate with legal sized figures / numbers + markings, anyone here running an import plate on there blobeye plate mount ??
