Congrats Ryan! Please purchase the correct sized front plate (16" x 3.5" )

Thanks guys.

I dont know what size ive ordered for the front. Its just a standard square motor bike sized one that will fit the bracket i bought from DGo. They are cropping a white transfer to fit as bikes dont have front plates. And ive decided i will be sporting a front plate

It was a real pain trying to find a place that could do a 12x6inch rear plate. Most places will only do the standard long plate or the 12x6 in white. By the time i found one, they were closing so i ordered the plates and will be collecting them tomorrow. It will obscure the top of the letters a fraction but at the moment i just wanna drive the car so i will look to getting a better plate made up online sometime soon. I dont see it being a mega problem really

I think mine is like that - isn't an issue

[DMC1983]

I can only see it affecting cameras more than anything. Itll have the correct size and font so as far as im concerned, ive done my job.

Awesome news ! Im Trying to think what FNP could stand for, I did Dan's (TDV Totally Diabolical Vehicle) so perhaps yours could be FNP F**king No Power !

Haha. I like it.

Well as you can probably tell, ive been out cruising today. The car drove perfectly. Ive taken a few people out for a quick spin, and i went for a cruise down southend sea front with the door open which was really cool. Couldnt exactly go fast since everyone wanted to drive no faster than 15mph anyway, so i figured, what the hell. Its been a great day and now im off again to get a celebratory meal of my accomplishment. I can finally start enjoying the car. And yes, still no front plate yet....

Looking Good there mate, whats next lowered front springs ?

[DMC1983]

Its on the list. I want to do the lower ball joints and lower control arms too. So will probably do all that in one go.

I need to look at all that today as the car has developed a squeaky type noise on the drivers side. Not sure what it is really but everything looks fine. Happens when going down the road and when i turn
