Well didn't I go and damge my number plate plinth today......... :evil:

So its got me thinking, after I fill the holes left in the bumper, what will i do, a sticker on the bonnet or a trendy side mounted plate like the one below.... Whats the verdict.

Mini or sidemount depends on how legal you want to be. :wink:

Been having thoughts of changing mine to side mount recently. You can have my old sticky one if you want. :lol:

Seriously though i had a full size sticky and didn't really like it, mini is nice but not very legal. (nor is any sticky as its not reflective!)
Sidemount ftw!!!!11

Get a mount from autolink

or make your own its only a couple if bits of metal.
And make sure you get the right size plate as to big looks silly imo. 8x6" is about right.

As far as I know the sticky plates mounted at the angle (facing up) are nearly impossible for a speed camera to read - but have'nt tried it personally
