Sorry about the size.
Mine is screwed in 4 places under the bumper to some large bracket.

I knew this guy who mounted his number plate on a hinge so it wasn't as visable from the front when moving, and didn't get in the way when parking or anything. It would just fold out the way.

I always thought the numberplate was part of the audible kerb proximity alarm system :roll:

I reckon numberplates screwed straight to the valance look the best.
Thats my personal preference anyway.
