These are all very handsome installations, but isn't the position of the numberplate interrupting the airflow into the FMIC in many instances? Is it not better to reposition it?

but last week I removed the core and sprayed it matt black with VHT paint. This doesn't seem to have covered the fins too thickly.

Very nice mate!

How much hassle was it to put that numberplate there and where did you get the plate from, if you don't mind me asking?

It's door edging strip, I had real trouble finding it down in west wales, I had some off one of the other lads when he came down to wales. I did manage to find a company that would sell it but they would only sell me £30 worth which was 17 meters!!!!! only need about 1.5 meters. I'm sure an autofactors or crash repair centre will have this stuff.

It just pushes over the rough cut edge, It's a tight fit so won't fall off, It also helps cover any wavey line you might of made

Legal size plate from Halfords, The exhaust is loud enough and don't need any extra attention from the rozzas

I used two drywall screws (These have an aggresive thread) to fix the plate and screwed directly into the bumper, I was going to mount this on the fog cover but the plate was bigger than the fog cover and would of pulled out. I used two white plastic covers (The same as used normal DIY(I'm a carpenter so had these laying around) and job was a goodun.

Hybrid with painted black core and mesh, powder coated pipes and a number plate not interfering.
