The space behind the plate is the result of the spacer.


Yeah I meant the gaping hole in the bumper below the number plate seems much smaller on the 3.0R than it does on the GT - maybe with a slimline plate it won't hang down there at all. I need to measure this but I'm about to go away and will be back Wednesday so will have a good look then!

OK Mark are you still offering these or are you done with making them up?

I have a photo and measurements for a 3.0R if you're still willing to make them. (don't have slimline plates yet, but I will and I assume the hole positioning at the top of the plate will be the same)

Hey mark did you have measurements for the pre facelift GT?

I'd be keen for a set :D

It's funny how little details like this can change the whole appearance of the front, great work

Still making them, when asked for one. ;) I will need those measurements and a photo as the 3.0R is the only one I havent measured yet. PM them to me.

Ive now made and fitted a set of spacers for the sedan rear.

It lifts the plate 10mm so that it covers those mounting openings, but also still covers those two raised lines when using a slimline.

If anyones keen let me know.

I dont charge anything for these kits, just postage if you need it. However, that means theyre made when I get around to it, so there may be a wait and the material / bolts wont last forever so there is a limited number.

Hey Mark

You're too kind, I'm pretty keen on these too, hate those holes sticking out the on top of the plates. Can I please get a pair for the front and rear too in your own time?
We met at the JDMST meet on Friday night, mines the MY06 2.0R pre-facelift. I have no idea which bumper is similar to this if any, so let me know if you need any measurements too.

Cheers!

My mechanic tells I me I shouldn't setup water spray, I should just get a FMIC.

I will have a set of these though Mark. Cheers.


Hi Mark, would one of those in the backlog be for me by any chance? :) I didn't take the initiative and pm so I'm not surprised if my post ended up being glossed over. I'm patient.
