To the untrained eye you may not be able to, but on modded cars its a let down

has any1 got chrome plate holders? if so, do they screw in on a corsa boot in the pre-drilled holes?
coz then the number plate just slides in covering the screws up

.....really?? u guys think that a car is made better by bodging on a number plate using double sided tape.
I had that on my car when it was std, and they kept fallin off, even with extra strong stuff.
I mean, if it really matters, you could always just stick a second plate on top for shows etc!
I'd go for useability, long lasting and practical, over the "to the trained eye" procedure. I can guarentee you that 99.9% of ppl would not notice as u drive past at 30mph down a street. Even at a show.....prob 1 in 10 would even think of it. Oh, and if a plate were to fall off, i dont really wanna be lumbered with a fine from the cops round here, that are so strict, u get done for incorrect character height on a plate, let alone it not being there!
sorry....but thats extreme.
