hey ozhonder. im thinking of relocating my front number to the side for a more jdm look. im just wondering what is the best option to cover the holes from the old mounting position?

Thank you for reading :)

The question has already been answered, but here is a few extra things.

1. Having a side mounted number plate isn't jdm. All jdm Honda's had centre mounted plates. The only cars that came out factory with side mounted number plates were Mitsubishi Evos, as they had a front mounted intercooler.

2. Having a side mounted plate is illegal in Australia.

he asked for the best option.

that must take into consideration the length of time it takes to complete.

your method is inferior to masking tape.

it takes too long.

you cant have a side mounted number plate, for ease of reading your number plate must be in the center.
otherwise i would put my number plate on the driver side facing away diagonally so speed cameras wouldnt see it, since all speed cameras in WA are on the left hand side of the road.

but if you find it necessary, place rubber gromets in the wholes, but you will have a flat spot on your bumper ahaha.
