Default Number plate re-locate.
Evening all,

Toying with the idea of fitting import plates but re-locating the front on to a more JDM style ie, moving to the passengers side fog cover area.

Question is has anyone done this who could shed some light on how you fit the plate in the new position? Pics also welcome.

Thanks!

Looks nice, so do you have mesh instead of a fog cover behind it?

What year car?

I drilled my number plate to match the foglight cover bolt holes, then used nylon spacers and longer bolts to fix it.

Yes mate, I've opened up the front bumper and meshed it all up

Before the number plate...

Sorry it's on a 04 Wrx with fog covers.

Thanks for the pics guys, both look spot on.

You considered a sticker?

theyre about a £tenner and you can get them printed at 75% scale so they fit the bumper surface bang on.
