Full size does look better, but still doesnt cover the mounts above it. :P

NSW slim plates are a smaller profile than Vic ones and require less lift which is why you can get away with just spinning the speed nut around.

I got around the plate mount visibility by adding a frame around the plate. Looks much better. :)

Cruisn I'm also really keen for a set of your front plate 'lifters' if you decide to start making them again. More than happy to pay for your time/materials too. Add me to the queue! :wink:
