Hello guys, I just got my car back after it had a little accident a while ago, made a few deals with the repairer and he put on a nice 400r front bar for me :)

Was driving away when my dad ( drove me there ) was driving infront pulled over said I didn't even have a front number plate :D never realised haha.. was just drooling over the new front bar..

Anyway.. My old plate never came to the shop because it was on my old front bar which dissapeared somewhere..

I got new plates... The back one is done and simple..

Although here's where I need help.. The Front bar has no holes where it appears the plate would go.. Just the space for it in the middle.. Do most of you guys put it there.. or is there somewhere else you can put it?

Below is my bar.. if you could circle where to put the plate and what method to use I'd be very very grateful :)

Flicked througha few shots with the 400r front bar with lines and they all pretty much have it here..

Guess I'll go with that.. don't have the tools tho :)

if anyone lives around the Bondi area and wants to come help me out.. ( bring a drill or what ever is needed to put the front plate on ) Pm me

Edit: As a temporary could I just tie the plate to the mesh.. seems strong enough for the light plate to me.. ?

Edited by ignuz
ignuz dont u have a drill you just need to drill two small holes and screw the number plate on using two screws, 5 min job, if you havent got a drill borrow of a neighbour,

i wouldnt let that set you back from driving your car

I didn't :( Tonight I just temporarily screwed it into the mesh

    • I definitely agree with you there - I never click on content for cars I would never ever be able to get or compete with/against/be seen next to. Seeing a MX5 compete with a FD RX7 will make people upset though, for sure. Even in 2.5L Turbo form which is pretty grass roots. (or at least as grass roots as classic cars can be) Yes we're all classic car owners now.
    • Wonder what the cause is, but here's hoping it's nothing too serious.
    • People don't always want builds that are overly expensive, or have engineering/registration/insurance issues and head aches that come with them Whilst big dollar builds, and complicated stuff is interesting to watch, there is only a tiny % of people who would actually use this information, or have the spare finances to drop on said builds, whereas the buy a cheap(ish) cool car, and make it better, with a average budget, that the average Joe or Jane could achieve will always be a winner in my opinion 
    • Bit of a thread revival, you mentioned wanting a bit more top end before, do you regret not going with the 1.01?
    • It's kind of interesting - They definitely do builds that split the difference between what they like and what will generate views and engagement. The NC Platform always surprises everyone in a good way, in an uncomfortably good way some may say. They could throw a LS in there and arguably have the best (and best performing) car of the entire stable. But that isn't necessarily what draws views, because people viewing don't want to accept the vegetables of a LS NC MX5 being a superior vehicle in every way (including fun) than a RB26 240Z. This is also why there's not a lot of content about the GR Yaris (on the web in general). They're too good, yet 'only a Yaris' The community doesn't want certain cars to be as good as they are - to beat their hero cars, and I believe the NC MX5 is absolutely one of those cars.
