  • anyone side mounted their slimline plates?

    finally got my plates just wondering if anyone has mounted their plate under the headlight rather than in the usual place? And if so any pics?

      I guess it could be done if you don't want to drill holes in the grill.

      Remember that plates have to be visible from a 40 degree angle from the front of the car.

        +1, looks like you want an EVO (would be faster too). The normal position isnt blocking the FMIC, so guess it's down to personal taste.

          What if he wanted an Alfa Romeo instead of an Evo...

            I'll have a play around with it.. plates are black on white so it suits the rear being on the white bar.. but just thought it would look better mounted on the white section on the front bumper stead of the black, GTI grilles look so good plateless.

                  I reckon it looks good on the r32 above, only thing needed is the dots removed from where it was mounted before.

                  Or do it how Trent does, below the main section.

                      I don't mind it off to the side as shown in the pic - initially I thought you were talking about mounting the plate vertically somehow

                      Slightly OT: does the R32 not come with a bonnet liner like the GTI or is that an aftermarket on the GTI?
