hi, I'm thinking of putting my number plate on the rear bumper instead of the tailgate.

I am going to smooth the tailgate completely.

But i was just wondering if anybody has seen a 6n 16v with the number plate on the bumper (With recess).

I've looked on google and stuff for pictures but cant find and of real quality.

has anybody got any pictures of theres or anybody else's that have done this?

Can be seen on my car... but no number plate there as it will be for shows only.

Cheers guys... Great help

I'm still open to more pictures :)

Has anybody put the recess to one side? Or in an unusual place?

there was a kiddy who put a build thread on here of a white 6n and he put a recess in the side of a 16v bumper, cant find where its gone tho, i diddnt like it too much but each too there own and i suppose its different :)

I usually hate them..but that one looks awesome!

picture of mine :)

Think the above car would look alot nicer without the twin backbox and the towing eye smoothed out. imo

Awesome response, cheers guys!

Still open to more pictures...

what do people think to having mine to the bottom right hand side! Having a nice recess like the silver ones that have been kindly posted?

silver 1s look shit hot fair play to the owners

Awesome, you got any more pics of your progress?

Progress...

I thought I'd better get a bit done today.

Got the recess onto the bumper and got the general shape before SMCing it!...

Number plate fits nice and snug!

Also managed to get a skim of SMC (plastic bonding filler) into it and is now ready to be shaped this week!

Hope you guys like it... Let me know what you think!

How gutted is that owner gna be when he comes to getting new tyres and they have to remove his wheel weights leaving a noice blank patch haha.

Bumper looks great actually mate! is it just fibreglassed in from the back same as the towing eye cover?

we bonded the recess on first with silicone sealer and then used the plastic bonding filler to strengthen in right up so no chance of cracking. =D

been busy with my bumpers recently. finally modifications have finished and now painted!

Filler work finished..

Front and rear ready for primer

Rear in primer and flatted

Rear in the booth ready for paint

In paint wicked finish

Let me know what you think guys!

will get pictures of both bumers on the car very soon.
