If it's got an MOT, it's taxed, and it's insured, it's nice enough to belong on our stands at any show :th:

Haha, I've seen many a car that doesn't belong at a show!

Just gota sort scrapes and scratches out

Out of interest the white mk2 in the photos has a smaller plate positioned a little lower.... I want! What size is it? And where can I get a bracket for it?

that's mine, the TRD front bumper doesn't have a bracket, it has a recess in the bumper... you can just about see it in the following photo:
Image

the plate size is 13" x 3.5" (330mm x 89mm), if I put a standard import sized plate on it (13" x 6"), it affects the engine temperature dramatically as it reduces the amount of air intake for the radiator as it covers the scoop...
Image

You can buy direct replacement brackets for the import sized plate to bolt onto a standard UK front bumper... I've done it to my last 2 n/a's, and it makes the front look a lot better and cleaner (although not road legal)...

Very nice, I'm thinking of having the front clean and having a slightly smaller plate a bit lower in the top of the grill, or maybe one of the bendable ones.... Hmmm choices haha
