Guest CoolsBlue Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 Ok, so i want to fit my standard uk size front numper plate to my top secret bumper, i would like to fit it inside the middle vent, but i need to get x2, L brackets, seeming as the bumper is fitted to the car and dont want to remove the bumper, how could i fit them?! any ideas? or any other brackets tht might work? Cheers, Kev Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nic Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 Used an L section length of aluminium bolted to the bumper. Pics here http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/vbpicgallery.php?do=view&g=58 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest CoolsBlue Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 can it fit it without removing the front bumper? do you think would large rivets do the job? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nic Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 can it fit it without removing the front bumper? do you think would large rivets do the job? You'd need to remove the bumper to bolt it on, large pop rivets should hold it on firm enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steb9780 Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 Or you could go for the offset look. Mine is offset. Mine is mounted exactly the same way as Nic says, but in the the side scoop. I would also recommend using proper capheads and nuts, to fasten to the brackets. I found my number plate hanging on by a thread with those plastic ones. And the other side had dropped out.
