Where did you get the plate from? Do the do them in 8 x 6?

Looks good but the gap between the 2 letters and the 54 looks a bit odd. Can't wait to see the shortened boot

thanks mate

i got it from a company called option autohouse 0191 340 3002

i think they do mate they get all sizes no log book rubbish needed either..

never noticed the gap lol but i think iuts to keep the plate parrallel and in sync that would be my thort..

me cars hopefully going in next week to be shortened

Thanks mate, still looks really good!

How much is the shortened recess costing if you don't mind me asking?

Just wish I could afford to buy that Turbo and Intercooler from you :/

I've actually got a guy from here buying I think on Monday mate. Shame would of liked to seen it on a local car.

The guys a mate who's doing it but it won't be too much I think to customers he charges around £120/150 and that's painted aswell i can find out for ya if u want?

Love it, the plate looks nice, always fancied doing that on mine when i got my boot smoothed.

Thanks mate its jap size 13 x6.5 n the reason I done that is when I shorten the boot it will sit flush to the edges of the reg plate lights without having to either relocate them and change the boot lock or have a big gap either side . So there's method in my madness hahaha

Fmic and turbo for sale together mate as a package pd150 freshly overhauld

Looks odd because it doesn't fit the recess.

That would be me

Looking forward to seeing the finished pics, should look good

Are you keeping the same lines of the boot recess or going for straight edges?

i was thinking about straight liones for the euro look

but the guy in the paint is adamant that i do same lines

not sure which to do tbh

I've seen one before with straight lines n it looked crap. . .

Id listen to the guy n keep the original shape. :-)

see i wuite like the square on but because its been done once before im thinking same angle as fitted just to keep the oem look but a twist of euro aswell

I think keeping the same angles will look spot on. . IMO . .

Yer same shape would look great i think, as you said still abit oem.
