Number plate plinth

[hanny1973]

Hi all - does anyone know where I can get a number plate plinth for my 2007 Vantage, I've managed to crack mine....

Thanks in advance.

PS - handbrakes don't always work as advertised.

Don't forget the VAT and the delivery.

I imagine that there are plenty of owners who have a spare one at the back of the garage. They get discarded readily enough.

Best thing you've done to it, bin the fugle bracket and get the plate straight on the front

And this time next week ask where to get a new front bumper.

Always thought mine was an elegant solution, no idea where it's from though as it was already on the car.

Yes, that might have been the case had a not had the plinth on the front. Maybe I could just have a really thick rubber number plate?

I'm pretty sure my plinth is kicking about. I won't be able to check for 2 weeks though. I take it the 4x mount bolts are still intact? I only have 3 of mine as one had been cross threaded at the factory and took some persuading to come out.

AM handbrakes are notorious
ALWAYS leave it in gear!

Must get a plinth to protect my rear bumper too!

Since you guys have to display a front plate, how about mounting it on a thick piece of dense, closed-cell foam that would help absorb some of the impact force in case of a slow speed collision rather than directly on the bumper as some of you have done?
