Abz Posted June 6, 2012 Share Posted June 6, 2012 Some people use reflective stickers, though not 100% sure on the legality. Saying that, I had one years ago & the copper told me it was fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
listy Posted June 6, 2012 Share Posted June 6, 2012 When I had one on my old N/A, I got 2 metal right angle brackets, and fitted them in the top of the main opening. Sorry the picture is small, its the only one I could find that shows it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did think about something like this but wondered if it affected airflow, cooling etc... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didnt matter to the N/A For a twin i'd go for a sticky plate I think. I'm sure LittleNum can get them made up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

liam1 Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 used to have a stick on type on mine but prefer it mounted onto two brackets in the gap, http://i433.photobucket.com/albums/qq58/123mustang2009/carclean1128.jpg http://i433.photobucket.com/albums/qq58/123mustang2009/carclean1127.jpg http://i433.photobucket.com/albums/qq58/123mustang2009/kel3.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supra Gaz Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 I usually am not a fan of the stick on plates, but that looks much better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marc_p Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 Angled plate on my old Veilside Supe, much better than stick on in my opinion: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charlton Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 (edited) I have L shaped brackets holding mine on, I am going to swap the C2 bumper for the C1 soon and I will use a stick on plate so it doesn't ruin the lines that everyone loves Not the best pic to show the front but that's all I have at the moment Edited June 7, 2012 by charlton add image (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mwilkinson Posted June 8, 2012 Share Posted June 8, 2012 Have a look in my garage. Should have one with the genuine mount with an import sized plate. Avoid stick on as you will get stopped around Guildford way. What are you doing with your stock bumper, if it started off with one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Havard Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 if i get stopped i'll just have to use my female charms Yeah, my missus has a couple of them..!! hows about like this [ATTACH=CONFIG]152999[/ATTACH] That looks awful. Soopra, I would go with the angled brackets, very neat and legal, will not affect air flow either so a no brainer really. H. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
