    Thumbs up

    It gets my vote! It looks sooooooo much cleaner. I think James (Papa) has been running like this for several months without problems.

    How much effort is it to remove Simon?

    Good luck, they seize inside the captive nut. get a pair of grips on the other side if you can so you don't muller your bumper when it spins. They are the same as the nuts and bolts used for the lower spoiler...

    Phew..........I thought we were about to be exposed to pictures of your car wearing a bra Simon!

    There is no doubt in my mind that this improves the look of the car, but I am suprised that you can drive a car around without a front plate without attracting attention from plod. What is the likely action they would take if they did pull you over - slapped wristsa and a 'get it sorted son'?

    I was paranoid about driving my S2000 with a mis-spaced plate for months.......ultimately I drove it about 50,000 miles over 5 years without any unwanted attention..............

    I think that no number plate is £ 60 or a producer and misspace or altered reg up to a grand and one can loose the registration mark.

    I might be wrong.
