did wonder about this myself... Got pulled on fri for my small plate and have had to put a legal size one on, looked awful on the little mounting so took it off with the dremel!

Looks much, much better now, but if i was to ever get the front bumper sprayed in future I would have it smoothed and prehaps go down the route of something like a sticker plate.

Good if anyone has any pics..?

it doesnt without cutting it off with a dremel pal see post #2

If you could fill in the space it then leaves somehow smoothly your sticker could work depending on width..

I don't see the point in that small mount for the plate, it just means there's a gap between the bumper and most of the plate, which seems daft!
I've chopped a couple of inches from both ends of my standard front plate, that looks better but i've a smaller private reg which makes it possible.
