I wouldn't touch the super protector at all.

A cop sees that (and they will from the next lane over) and they'll do you hard. They changed the law in regards to obstructing the number plate and it's applicable to this and the fine is up.

The spray looks like the best idea because only fixed speed cameras use the flash so no human is every going to think something is wrong. Although if you use that I think you should take the SAU sticker from your back window if you have one :)

As a matter of interest I ordered one of these photo blocker sprays a while back and never ended up receiving it. I don't know if it's cos they're dodgey, cos customs might have taken it (although I never received notification) or because I accidently sent it to next door (although they would have brought it over) :)

Really, mother f#ckers... I duno if cops would notice it. That spray seems great but only works on Flash camera's. You can still get done easily. Like flash camera should have no reason to flash during the day right?

They might be able to get the spray?

I had the photoblocker plates, but sold them cause they stuck out like dogs balls, I would have been pulled over the by the first cop who drove by me. I suspect this is the same product.

You're better off buying the spray. I took before and after photo's from different angles and distances and it does work.

Or you could just not speed...  We all know that speeding kills..

Yeh depending on the conditions like all things. I dont speed in public areas, meaning any 60 - 100 areas. But i will put my foot down in areas where there are no houses, no bystanders, & no oncoming cars.

My want to get the spray is simply to help me out if someday i accidentally get caught out or a dodgy speed camera trys to fine me. f#ck that I'll play it safe & get the spray. BTW I’ve never had a speeding or red light fine of any sorts.

Or you can try : http://www.neltronics.com.au/other_products.htm ;these guys are in W.A. A good mate has got one of the plate covers(bottom of page)-has had it on for 4 years and saved himself heaps of $$$'s in dumbass revenue. He has have had the Police behind him on numerous occassions,and only once was the cover noted(yes,he was asked to remove it-it got put back on that night).They ARE illegal,before you ask.Either Zoom or HPi did a review of these,and hairspray,an official "plate-blocker" spray and one other equally dodgy item:the plate cover was the only one that scored above 5% efficiency(I think it was around 93-95%!)at blocking side on image taking(not just "flash")-the whole image disappears! Your call:it's your dollars/points.And,no,I wont post pics-from "dead-on",you and everyone will see his # plate!!

I thought flashes occur in daytime also.

And yeah since it's to protect the plate against photos I would only want it to be blocking the plate on the photo.

I would never use the obscuring license plate cover - may as well just take the plate off entirely (as a cop can see both just as easily).

aparently "PhotoBlocker" the spray got no law behind aka, cops cant bust u. or can they? does anyone know more abt this?

cos from wat i head, u cant have a palate over ur number plate covering it. but a spray? that aint no plate my friend

Anything that obstructs or obscures the numberplate is illegal. No matter what state you live in.

The numberplate frames that block the plate from an angle is just asking to be be busted. Parking police will notice it when they are doing their rounds and they can write you a ticket and report you. I have used the photo blocker spray and it DOES NOT WORK. I took before and after pics with my digital camera and it was the same. I think the new numberplates (in NSW) have a coating that does not make these products effective.

correction,. the rule says hte number plate should be visible to the naked eye at anyime (if its night obv with a light on it) aka. with the place u cant. the spray well, the plate is visible to the naked eye at all times

    • I'm running a Haltech Platinum Pro with the stock map for the RB20DET + tweaks for my build. When I started it this morning, the IAT was at 32F/0C (Outside temp was ~42F) and the AFRs went off the scale for my AEM gauge. I let it run for ~30 seconds then turned it off. I then did a smoke test, by hooking into a vacuum line directly behind the throttle body, and confirmed there was no leaks ( i let the smoke tester run for ~5 minutes / confirmed it was generating smoke before hand ). I then started the car again, after fixing a power steering leak.... and it seemed to be happy for ~30 seconds (was at ~11/12), but then seemingly shot back up to ~18 again. I then let the car run for a few minutes, thinking this was just cold start related, but the AFRs never came back down. I didn't let the car fully warm up, so maybe this makes sense, but I'm not sure what to do? The AFRs, when I last ran it, were normal, but because of personal reasons I haven't been able to break in the car. It was rebuilt last year.

    • Not great at getting the camera out fast enough for cars driving. Even in traffic. S15 is in front of the kei truck.
