License plate frame (As seen on an Evo9!) + Turbo A location

[Big Wang Bandit]

I was driving a few days ago in front of an Evo9 (like it should be) and I noticed his license plate bracket thingy. I loved it.

It was somthing like that but angled down a lil bit more.

Anyone know where I could get one of thoes?

On a side note where did the Turbo A supras mount their front plates?

im sure you could make one... try a stiff hinge from a hardware store

I may end up fabbing sotmhing. Just wondering if they are avalible

the turbo A's had mounting holes in the bumper ducts to mount a plate there. kinda defeats the purpose of the duct... :icon_conf

 

[Big Wang Bandit]

Yeah. Thats kinda odd!

Im gonna take a look at the Mitsu setup and try to duplicate it.

 

[Stanzaspeed]

thats what i would look into aswell... but my province is run by hill-billys so there is no front plates, or emissions, among other things... :biglaugh:

 

[Big Wang Bandit]

Well i dont have a front plate right now. Im supposed too and since I plan on moulding a Turbo A duct into my future build I need a new location! Not just a zip tie to the grill!

The Turbo A duct license plate mounting points don't fit our license plates. Just buy a long L bracket amd screw it into the bumper support over by one of the fog lights, and then bolt the plate to that.

Front plates for the loss.

So true, I won't be running one when the car goes back on the road.

i thought they were manditory in bc? i have seen bc cars with the front plate trimmed down so there is nothing really there except for the numbers...

other than that i thought you guys had to have both? :icon_conf

funny that you want to build/acquire one, as there is no purpose... (purpose in japan is to keep the plate at an angle so that the speed camera's can't take a pic or their plate (they take pics of the front))

 

[SupraDerk]

Aesthetic value for him?

hm.... i'm still gonna stick w/ function over form...

We do, but there are so many cars and trucks running around without a front one.
