I rather like it

I like that too, gives it a nice clean front end.

Not sure I like the grille, but how have you mounted that plate, and how did you smooth the nose? Thinking of doing something similar.

Not a fan of the grille, like the plate location though. I want to move mine, but I had a look behind the plinth and there are some mahoosive holes there, so it would look naff if I left them like that.

There's actually four holes behind my plinth. No idea why...

Yup, same as. I've got the same two holes as the OP has, but also an additional two, much wider ones.. which are very noticeable

That's where the plate is on my 10AE. However I can say it didn't like the snow so much - the plate got bent due to it (after the picture was taken). I also have a grill on it now.

the plate has just been bolted to the bottom of the valance and i have not touched the nose as you can see the old holes from when the plate was mounted on a plinth
