were am i going to put my plate when i get my bumper smoothed

doesnt seem worth paying all that money to get the swage line+recess smoothed to just stick the plate back on

any ideas or pics

are the transfare plates legal that you stick on the bonnet

Transfer plates aren't illegal to my knowledge, mate has one on his probe.

Put it in your window till you get stopped.

i just went for the hidden in the boot or at home method

i got in less trouble for having no-plate than the mini plate's, in fact i never got in trouble for having no plate

Likewise, 3/4 plates cause me more police hassle than the month or so I drove without one, but was sick of my old folks nagging at me

That's what I loved about my bike, they get away with small plates so easily.
