front number plate law - stick on?

[JoeRS133]

Is it possible to have a stick on plate?

Im thinking have it to one side like the evoX making the front more aggressive and to add some cooling holes.

Can this be done? Is it legal?

I got the idea from forza 4!

 

[JE_GT]

Yes its fine

 

[JE_GT]

As long as the plate is legal and the right size etc

 

[JoeRS133]

Ah thats good news!

I have a feeling looking at the car it would have to wrap around the front bumper between the lights and fogs which could be a problem.

If anyone has info on sizes etc please let me know as my internet use it limited to my phone for the time being.

Look at your original plate. The borders, spacing and letter size and font must be the same on a reflective white background.

The plate should also where possible, be fixed to the first avaliable vertical surface at the front of the vehicle

*available*

Haha.

Looks like this is a no then? Is it legal to have it window/dash mounted?

 

[singlespeed]

Could you then argue that thats the front?

theres obviously loads of cars which don't have a strictly suitable surface. Ariel Atom is a good example. But the Twingo has a suitable sace designed in.

Do it if you want, but you could well get pulled for it

Im looking at an evo 6 right now and that has a small almost square front number plate at the front. Im thinking if i dont take the pee i'd get away with it. But might have to research more first.

when i 1st got my car i was thinking of taking the beam thingy out where the number plate goes for a huge intercooler then debadging the front with some filler then sticking the number plate across where the badge went. but i changed my mind...

Yes, they call them Leno Tringos.

They very much do, several Japan only editions and parts too...

E.g - Coupe des Alpes GT

Uprated exhaust, specific wheels, lots of aftermarket braces.
