Well following on from my previous thread, the documentation has arrived for R99 JOL. So I need to get the transfer done tommorow or friday in Preston and get a set of plates made up.

I have seen quite a few MINI's with small plates on the front and IMO it makes the front end look very

So I was wondering if anybody could tell me how to make a small numperplate fit. The reason I ask is because my front aero bumper has a 'backing plate' which the current number plate sits on, and putting a small numberplate on it wouldnt look right as black plastic would remain. I presume this would need to be removed or shortened, but how? If I did this would exisiting drill holes be visible?

Any help would be much appreciated, I have tried searching but nothing seemed to come up.

Oh and what size would I require? Fancy Plates have a small front bumper listed as 390mm X 84mm. Is that right?

Regards,

James.

I remember 'Damo' cut down his backing plate, on his aero kit, might be worth dropping him a PM...
