affixing number plates

[Nwimie]

just wanted a general discusion on how people have fitted there plates out of the way of a FMIC. ive made my own kind of bracket but keeps failing every so often.

Has anyone tried a Evo 8 style holder?? as was thinking of buying one and adapting to fit.

or have you just drilled into the bumper?

Drilled the bumper, never came off once.

You can get numberplate relocation brackets from Tegiwa Imports

Don't use VW sticky pads. Mine fell off last week lol..

These are quite good for bolting things to bumpers, does involve drilling holes though.

think im gonna go for screwing into the bumper today just have to go drill some holes in my plate first

Double sided tape. We use it in trade to stick letters and stuck on, theres not a hope in hell of it coming off. I don't like the thought
of drilling the bumper, I have a mk1 and the thought of drilling holes into it sends me cold haha

 

[matt walters]

if you do it in the right place you can drill the bumper underneath the lip so you cant see the holes if the plate is removed at shows etc

make 2 L shaped brackets, bolt the long side to the plate and have the other bit about an inch long and screw it to the underside of the main part of the bumber

maybe a mod could merge all these threads to one massive one?

good double sided tape and hasnt moved in 2 years but its getting to the end of its life now or the tegwia ones are good too and you dont have to drill the front of the bumper either just the underside of it

i screwed mine into my bumper looks really good

 

[Nwimie]

did mine today 2 self tapping screws and the little plastic covers drilled 2 holes in the plate and screwed it into my bumper both screws at top looks good.and will always be mounted there so no need to worry about the holes made.
