Two pulls in a few weeks, I can take a hint.
as more and more average cameras go up, the more essential it is for the front plate to be shown so that we can be busted....

As others have said, heavy duty velcro from 3M will do the trick. Worked fine on my chav chariot but then again that was only ever tested to two thirds of what your car can manage. Lovely colour by the way!

Update on this since the threads been resurrected, I used what no nails removable pads, available from most supermarkets, and they are truly removable leaving virtually no residue, and two pads held a plate on no problem.

reading earlier posts did you not fit the hideaway plate holder? I've got a friend who sells both manual and electric versions in the UK. Personally I'd just leave the normal plate on a car like yours (as there is a proper place to put one) and stick a show plate over the top with maybe a picture of a Bull or Lambo logo on it for photos

This is what I used on the 360 and now the Gallardo, simple and effective and never flown off at 70ish mph yet.

You are driving a car not a fashion statement. Why buy a car and behave like you do? I really don't get it....

i am simply keen for when taking photos and at shows like wilson house being in the position to remove the plates with a minimum of fuss and effort FFS
