For the guys in W.A. that have the acrylic plates rather than the aluminium what is the preferred method of fitting front plates:shrug:
I definitely don't want to use the factory plate holder
I don't want to have mine crack when it is put on
I have the slimline front plate

Are these needed for QLD slimline plates?

I got some and they came in a pretty solid casing?

So you're saying QLD slimline plates don't need anything else to go onto the car?
I met up with a friend on the weekend who has fixed his slim-line plate directly to the front bumper. He needed to bend the plate slightly in the middle to follow the contour of the bumper. He has put a few small felt dots on the plate to stop any rubbing.

The plates are very light - I believe some people are just using quality double-sided tape, but I would prefer to fix mine as they are expensive to replace if they fall off!

Sure others will have an opinion too :)

Edited to add: I will be asking the dealer NOT to fix the large black "bill board" numberplate holders to my car. Don't like the look of them at all!

I had that included on the contract and will be ringing them to remind them once the car lands. If they drill any holes they'll be paying to have it repaired.

Just ordered my new plates and Lankin brackets. I've been tossing up getting personalised plates vs custom but in end went with personalised. I just can't swallow the idea of nearly $500 annual fee for the custom plates.

Think it was 5% excl postage. Didn't pay that much attention. Put the code (Mustang6G) in the discount field while checking out. It's on one of the last pages of the checkout process which is a bit confusing as most sites have them at the very start.

Went into my dealer yesterday - he showed me the butt ugly stock Ford plate holders, and was easily swayed into getting the Lakin plate holders instead.

My dealer is happy to supply and fit on delivery.

Your dealer will be supplying the Lakins?

I assume that they will be adding some Mustang Tax.

... at the very least he probably won't get the forum discount!

Yes. The dealer has the Lakins.

And yes, there is a Mustang Tax and one I'm happy to pay if it means I haven't got to muck around ordering and fitting myself. Means they will be on the car when I pick it up. Small Tax to pay!

What could possibly go wrong!

:doh:

N.B. Your dealer sounds a little more switched on than this one, so this fate should not await you.
