So attachting your plates guys how we all doing it??

I am thinking double sided tape as my plates wont have pree drilled holes.

Was thinking as well if the boot is magntic i would glue a magnet to the plate so it would stay.

Not sure with the front as im sure it will be fiberglass/plastic lots of double sided tap i guess

Probably zipties hahahahah :P

Slide – Kinda keeping it to myself at the moment :P All will be revealed eventually

I don’t think I have mentioned what colour or rims I want either.
I will probably get the TRD coilovers though. Maybe a TRD clutch type LSD if they release one too. I don’t want to drift it ont rack, but a good LSD is always necessary, and TRD ones in the past haven’t been so aggressive as to lock up on slow speed corners, but always lock well at speed.

i want it mounted on the grill (upper blocked off area). i don't want it on the painted bumper.

that's why i want a slimline at the front as it won't effect airflow much.

Man, I for one will be def screwing it and possibly even bolting the plates on with security screws and threadlock(if bolted) and mayb even consider sikaflex to the bar due to inconsiderate A-holes who think they can just come and take others plates for themselves causing the hassle and cost of getting them replaced...

paying to replace plates in those circumstances is just plain ridiculous, i think my gf was quoted something like $200 to replace her old white plates and they wouldnt even replace them as all white ones they had to be the ones with the black border and they look like shit compared to the all white with black letters

Nafe · 02-07-2012, 12:26 AM

I wasn't being 100% serious :P
Given I ahve forked out for personalised i will probably security screw the on.

Not replacing plates like for like is bullshit!! Did they give reasons?

Another qld/bris with plates.

What style you order them in

crimespree · 02-07-2012, 03:30 PM

2 x slimline

Varvs · 02-08-2012, 05:09 AM

are you guys with BRZ/86 themed plates planning on de-badging or something? IMO it looks silly having the make/model repeated on the number plate.

crimespree · 02-08-2012, 05:11 AM

Yes I'll be taking the BRZ badge off my Toyota.....

Nardi330 · 02-08-2012, 05:42 AM

I'll take off the 86 or BRZ badge and put some STI and TRD badges on.
