Looks great.Looking at the arches i dont think you would get the devon ones to fit now anyway !
Dont worry mate, i havent had a front plate for over a year...its in the boot! Havent been stopped they all seem busy with chavs, thankfully!
You can get a non legal one without all the drama or go to a parts shop and buy the plate in bits and make it up yourself, that is strangly legal???????? be careful though as not having a plate" sorry must have fallen off " gets you a 30 quid fine if you are unlucky.Be careful if you make a plate up yourself. a plate with the wrong number is seen as very very dodgy and gets you a major kicking!

What have you donw to the wheel arches, Mine at the front are rubbed thru where the inner arch fits.

Yours look good how did you trim them and what did you do with the inner arch at the front as I think if I trimmed mine the same as yours you would see the edge of the inner,

If your car still looks like that after two days in the mud, then yes the Piglet award would be coming your way.  :D

Just to clarify....

"The Piglet award for the excessively shiny" is not given to vehicles just for being clean.

It is given to modified or heavily equipped vehicles that go to an event and don't actually do very much.   Maybe they just sit in the car park, or were just used to tow the caravan..  or spent the whole weekend having their tyres changed ;-)  



As the tagline for the award says...  'Over-spec'd and under-used'

Hope that clears up any confusion :-)

Oh my word!

And she was in Guy's when he hit the tree, Cliff's when the timing belt snapped.

Is she now a rival for Ben?
Ben might get some peace and quiet now with the heat on Julie 8)  8)  8)
If I wear those sunglasses Julie might not know it was me that said that.

I'm off before she comes on.
