Number plate surround
Number plate surround
Hi all just wondered if anyone has removed the front number plate surround is there holes in the bumper behind it ?
I think a 3/4 front plate would look quite good like on the mk5 golfs

Re: Number plate surround
I removed my number plate base today. Just 2 plastic pins sticking it to the bumper. reveals the gril behind it. Looks a lot nicer without!

you checked the legality of your pressed versions??mattyw wrote:i've removed mine now and put my pressed plate with wolfsburg surround on
Cops do like to pick on people with non standard reg plates.
Re: Number plate surround
The one I've got on the front is illegal I need to get another legal one from dubmeister,I did have one but I had a little tantrum and bent it in half,I've not put a pressed one on the back as it's more likely they will see the rear plate and stop you

Re: Number plate surround
I'll try to take some pics tonight.
looks a lot better with the plate holder and without number plate studs.
Mattyw, thinking of V3s....

There may or may not be 1 or 2 flys on my bumper, but you get the impression nonetheless

Re: Number plate surround
It's just some press in plastic stubs. get a screwdriver and wedge them out. there's only 2. i then drilled 2 new holes so my new plate surround was in the correct position. job done.justdaryl wrote:hey how did you remove it? is the removal of front spoiler necessary?
