I took my number plate off today cause it wasnt sitting straight and noticed that the plate its sitting on doesnt look like it fits, at all. So just wondering if anyone else has something that looks and fits like mine does? and if they took theirs off?

And if you noticed, yes i do have a spider living somewhere behind my number plate, that i cant seem to get rid of lol.


Cheers. JM

Looking at that Number Plate Bracket/Plate/thingie - No wonder your plate wasn't sitting straight. Could you just remove it and screw the Number Plate directly to the front bar?

As for the spider. A spray of Surface Spray (not on your paint) should fix it.

thats what i was trying to do before, but its very tight between the bumper and the plate, only sticks out about 15mm. but yer so im guessing no one else has this stupid plate? what do you have underneath instead?

i have nothing between my plates and the bumper, just screw it straight in.

nothing theere orginally? or did u take it off?

nothing there originally! now i dont know what the previous owner has done, but there was nothing there when i took mine of.

same

ive never had anything on my car like that

some do have a bracket to hold number plates........
looks like yours has met a towbar from another car though

by the looks of it, it has the longer number plates than standard issue and he had to bolt a plate on to allow room for the screws etc,i reckon the standard plates bolt into the holes that are holding this monstrousity on!

I agree

Mine has the same thing as yours (the bracket) but mine is curved too allow it to fit snugly

Basically, your right side should be sticking out similiar to the left to create a curve then the plate would sit straight

Did you remove yours? or should i just try and remove mine and locate one from a wreckers?

just take it off hit with hammer and straighten it
