Default While we're talking about number plates...

Has anyone got any experience, better pictures, opinions, etc. of this number plate holder from Rick's?
I've not been able to find much on the search...

http://www.ricks2k.com/products/plateholder.php

I was just about to PM Rick to see if it would it be suitable for the UK, but his PM's are disallowed.
I may send an email later.

That is a copy of a Backyard special number plate holder which is very popular in Japan.I am certain you could use it with a UK plate but it would look a little odd IMHO.

Thanks for that Ian. Just what I was looking for.

And I think your both right. Looks a bit naff.

I took everything off and glued the plate onto the nose of the car.

Look fine to me !

Although it sounds like a punchline to a joke...
