So the question on everyone's lips is... how *do* you put a number plate on the front!?!?!?

With a drill, some big self tappers and someone standing behind you saying "left a bit, right a bit..........that's close enough"

.....told you it was hideous! Just imagine how much more hideous it is if you make it UK spec plate size

You have been warned.

I find it hard to think why we should pay £40k/£50k for a super car that you can not even have a proper front number plate fitted, some off us club members may drive with out one, but if GM want to sell to a wider European market they better change the front, I also know some US states need front plates, I will stick with my C5, been along time since I have been out in it, can't remember if I have front plate.

Yup, screwed is the word. Although the wide front Euro plate in the Telegraph looked naff I think it's probably no worse than the federal version. The federal 12" x 6" is a lot deeper so sticks down into the air intake more than the Euro version.
