Rear License Plate Vinyl Mod Opinion

Postby slongdo11 » Wed Oct 28, 2009 9:54 am

Hey...I want to do something with the rear license plate...It's too much of nothing IMO. What do you guys think of putting vinyl around it? Any other ideas??

Looks good mate, it would give some nice definition to the rear bumper.
If you go ahead with it make sure you post up the dimensions of the vinyl used, I wouldn't mind doing similar to mine!

That looks like it could work nicely!

Great idea!

I just cut a rough pattern out tonight and ordered the vinyl online. Have to wait for that to come and then I'll post some pictures and dimensions of the pattern. From a distance...it actually resembles vampire teeth....PRETTY SWEET!!!

What's the point of adding that? It may be " made from weight reducing carbon fibre" but it adds weight to begin with :lol:

I guess consmetic...

Not everybody is looking to save weight, there's a lot of people out there that prefer looks too performance........I think it looks good!!!!

Okay...so I can either do the first image, or vinyl the area like the picture tryg posted. Which one do you think?

Rear License Plate Vinyl - Finished

Decided to do the whole thing black vs. just the sides. Think I'm going to outline the outside with carbon fiber vinyl to clean up the sides (which came out a little shabby). [/img]
