Australian Front Mini Plate
Hey guys, so I've decided to just cope with my front plate holes in my brz and i really like the look of the mini australian license plates. I found the company "Lakin" who makes slim brackets for the BRZ but they don't seem to respond to my emails. I'm not sure the specific bracket size i need or where i can purchase the mini plate itself. if anyone has any info please let me know.

Assuming you are referring to these? http://goo.gl/3cngwC
Try measuring the L x W dimensions of your plates and see if any come close to the number plate types listed. Because these mounts are made specifically for AUS plates screw holes might not match up so this is something you might need to take into account. Philip is a very easy to deal with so if he hasn't responded just yet, I'd try again. His a busy guy. I've got both front and rear mounts with covers and while expensive worth every cent. |

^^^ Just use a piece of thin plastic or aluminum to make a small adapter.

Stock front plate holder looks fine IMO. Why not run that?

I'm not a fan of the stock front plate because it hangs over the grill. the lakin piece doesnt hang over and i would put a custom Australian mini plate on the lakin bracket.
