I used to agree with you, but now I prefer the look of my import plate.dawesy wrote:Have to agree. A uk front plate looks better on the mr2 and offers less obstruction to air getting to the radiator.
On an import there is a legally smaller (motorbike) font size you can use (provided in case there isn't space to mount a plate with full size font). However you might find your registration won't quite fit in the 13.5" width of the import holder even at the smaller legal size.Pav677 wrote:I am considering changing the plate, not for a UK one but a small UK type, maybe another excuse for the police though.
I went to order a legal sized, smaller front plate from createmyplates.com and got very good service from the guy, who took the time to phone me to explain it wouldn't fit and refunded my money completely. Despite not actually buying anything, it was a very positive experience so I'd give them a shout if I were you.
