New plates

[paulboy247]

Got round to changing the plates. Ditched the awful old ones for a standard rear one and trimmed front. 10x better imo. Sorry for the poor phone pics and yes I know the car badly wants cleaning lol.

now

Next on the to do list: Colour coding and a 172 rear bumper.

I'd willing pay 30 quid to get new plates if they were manky, or like shown in this thread, terrible style Makes the car look alot more clean and looked after to have fresh perfectly clean ones.

Good improvement.

Better. But the recess plates don't have the same effect on non RS models.

 

[Jimbo-Clio]

old plates look worse than a cats bum

True, I'm soon to be colour coding the black plastic behind the plate though so that should make them look even better hopefully.

Yes, on the second page of their constructor, drop-down menu that lets you choose. Think it works out about £18 delivered

How do you get the OE plates off? Are there screws under the caps or what? I just ordered some new plates and once the DVLA get their asses in gear will be taking the old ones off.

Lucky enough my car has never had number plates screwed on, always been sticky tabs as far as I can tell. Just had to prise them off. Need patience to get the sticky crap left behind off tho lol

Some degreaser & tar remover - put it on and leave a few mins
Wash off with warm soapy water and a bug sponge
