Styling opinion - Offset numberplate

[Steve Webb]

Right, finally got the French plates for the car and am 100% legal over here, but the question is, do I mount the new front plate centrally, or offset a la 156, and open up the bumper air vent?

[AlfaJack]

How big is the plate? UK size?

[sub555]

got any pics :

[Steve Webb]

The plates are UK sized, and I'll stick the plates in place tomorrow with tape and take a couple of pics. See what it looks like in real life.

I prefer "offset a la 156" assuming that there is enough space and the GTA like air-intake in the original plate's place. Later on I probably go for such a mod.

Cheers

Steve ,
better place ..(for Q4)

[Steve Webb]

Cheers for the views guys, I have mounted the plate up in the normal place for the monent, but will shift it off to the side in the near future.

Maxi - What have you used to edge the hole that was cut out of the bumper? Don't want to just have the rough edge left at the end of things.

Steve ,

This picture is old ,




Now Im use new bumper on the car,
Its original ,
I cut it my first free time ..

I use this ,

[arjunior45]

maxiboost,
did you have any benefits with those holes, in terms of lower temperature in the engine or the engine bay?

Unless there is a reason to move the number plate leave it where it is.

Maxiboosts car looks good, and would be effective if you were moving to a centrally mounted intercooler.

friends ,
This holes use on the Q4`s very hot countrys ,for example Argentina ,
Must be cool something
Car look good already .
Juan alzaga`s car has this .

And I think ,
when I install front and center intercooler ,
its need much air input ..

I have intercooler but its stay my room last six months

[wrinx]

Has anyone got a template for the cut-outs in the bumper...or could perhaps supply the dimensions please?

[AlfaJack]

or could perhaps supply the dimensions please?

Knew I should have done something rather than dribble when I saw Subs car!!!

[wrinx]

Funny you should mention Sub....someone with a VERY similar name was supposed to be getting the dimensions for me

As I promised:
(Sorry but here we use metric system, 2,54 cm = 25,4 mm = 1 in)









Hope this helps.

[wrinx]

Thank you!!!

(I'm bilingual...can use metric and imperial )

..the inner cut-out looks jagged, is that original?
