3/4 plates

[MikeyK18]

is it just me or does anyone else think they look stupid on a clio?

 

[gaz44]

I agree

 

[Englebert]

Small plates FTW, or at least something that fits into the numberplate recess properly.

 

[MikeyK18]

its just looks sooo stupid wen u see a tiny plate and the rest of the recess wer a normal plate should go

looks gash!

 

[Barron]

3/4 plate that fits recess FTW

 

[Clgale88]

I thought mine looked ok and have had good comments about it but im thinking about changing both my plates to the new legal pressed plates they have just brought out from dubmeister

3/4 plate that fits recess FTW

thats looks well, recess filled out nicely

 

[Ash87]

each to their own really

Ones which don't fill the recess fully just look plain wrong.

then what about the huge recess on the rear in the tailgate? that recess isn't filled by the plate

 

[Timmay]

um not sure myself

 

[clio_luke]

my front plate is the same size as barrons, and i love it.
3/4 plates look ok. filling the recess and cutting some off the height is best

Eh ?? a full size number plate does fill it out.

 

[clio_luke]

what about the excess space above and below the numberplate on the rear.

would look horrible with one of those oversized rover (fake jag) style plates tho.

i saw a clio with a jap style plate. that looked 10x worse than a 3/4 plate.

Ha ha I was thinking of doing that at one point. I loved my jap plate on my old car and really like the size. Decided not to though for the clio as wouldn't fill the recess.

Lol, the gaps no where near that bad ! It would look utter crap with a smaller plate on it than it has.

 

[Jagz]

I think fill the recess but trim the top and bottom. Might do that before pod.

 

[jayxx83]

Think they look the tits tbh, makes the front of the car look wider...

 

[Paul.]

what plate is this and where can i get 1????

 

[Peejous]

I agree it makes the front look wider and more agressive however I do like the ones on Whiteley's.

 

[jooliona]

whiteley's looks good

others look like bee stings imo

 

[Leeshez]

Mine is normal size just cut down.

 

[cat171]

^ see that to me looks a bit odd, if the boot didn't have the recess it would look better.

 

[henryp]

I quite like the look of 3/4 plates

 

[Whiteley]

Paul, mine came from fancyplates.com, it's a 3/4 height x standard length. You give them whatever dimensions you want and it turns up in a nice jiffy bag a few days later. £16 posted I think it was.

That's what I want for mine, as you can still keep the legal requirements

What were your dimensions?

[Ash87]

mines a cut down standard one.

 

[And]

 

[cat171]

^ see ones like that that fill the recess, but don't over hang at the bottom look nice.

It's the cut down length ones I can't get my head around.

 

[pete_clio]

i concur ^

And your car looks ridiculously similar to mine at the front lol

 

[GazM]

Im not keen on the 3/4 either, i think the recess looks better filled with no lip hanging over
