coldel Posted December 10, 2011 Share Posted December 10, 2011 OK, I am thinking I want to put my number plate on the grille rather than the front of the bumper - any ideas on how to make it stay on the grille? Some hooks stuck to the back maybe? This is what it looks like... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neilp Posted December 10, 2011 Share Posted December 10, 2011 Could restrict required airflow to engine of you do that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coldel Posted December 10, 2011 Author Share Posted December 10, 2011 Yeah I thought the same, I asked another member (maybe have been Attak cant remember) somewhere about that he said it was ok - guess then that is two questions - does it really mess up air flow and if not, how best to attach it ...

coldel Posted December 10, 2011 Author Share Posted December 10, 2011 Tied to what? I guess I could stick something to the back of the plates? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buster Posted December 10, 2011 Share Posted December 10, 2011 surely just drill the plate and self tapper into speed nuts the other side of the grille....simples Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coldel Posted January 23, 2012 Author Share Posted January 23, 2012 OK - going to have a go at doing this this week - whats if I drill the plate and bolt it on, will I need to remove the undertray to get behind the grill - or is it possible to reach in through the engine bay?

Clarkie Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 I'd just drill a few holes in the plate then cable tie it to the grill, i'm guessing the mesh is strong enough to handle the load? I'm actually about to do the same to my other car cos i'm fed up of smashing the plate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stew Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 It'd be easier with the undertray off I'd have thought. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
