Rear 2number plate option

[Graham Barton]

I’ve found a online UK number plate supplier who will supply this size plate which enables you to remove the black plastic bar under the rear number plate and replace it with this size. I think it looks tidy!

This is what I was thinking of, but how would it look with the green flash? Also are the screws in a different place?

So what do we think with the flash?

I think the chances of picking up the original fixing points are almost impossible to achieve.
I would favour a GOOD quality double sided tape, it would much better than having fixings through the plate face anyway.
I am a little "Unsold" on the bigger back ground myself.
The letters and numbers have to comply with the law and therefore the balance of all that yellow surround can look a little out of proportion with the black numbers ????.
Hey ............. What do I know !.
If it rocks your boat, then go for it !.
What about going for the "Gel" numbers ?.
I have them on my car and I am always being asked :-
"Where did you get your number plates from mate ?".

My dealer in Essex when I asked/about the spare holes they told me that they fit a larger plate on the rear and easily use the existing holes (or you could stick the plate on)
Not a problem for me now as I have cancelled the order and therefore removed any issues

So without the flash then?

 

[kiltox]

I’m not a fan of the flash at the best of times. I especially don’t think it looks right on those oversized rear plates though.

So the rear plate is the XJv2 and it fits ok ?

Yup - fits perfectly. I made a template of the holes so that I drilled in the correct places.

Looks nice just got mine delivered today will use sticky pads to fit

 

[Lovemyev]

Just a bit different to the normal "Run Of The Mill" type long oblong plate !.
Yeah ........... Looks nice to be fair.
It would look tidy in the new raised "Domed" gel letters on the plates, not cheap though.
