Front End Options
My Silverstone 2002 model is going in to the bodyshop next week for a full respray. 3rd party insurer is paying for a new door skin and paint on one side after a German tourist in a hire car reversed into the side in a car park and I am paying for the rest to be done at the same time as it has picked up a few scuffs, stonechips & scratches over the years.
Still undecided about the front end regarding removing the number plate holder having the holes filled and colour coding the headlight washers. I cant seem to find photos of a Silverstone model with both the plate holder removed and the washers colour coded so would be grateful if anyone can point me in the right direction of any photos with this combo to help make up my mind. You would think the 15 weeks it has taken to get the insurance sorted out would be long enough to make up my mind but apparently not
Also are 3/4 size front plates legal or are they PC mood dependent?

i would do it as it will look great,
3/4 plates are completely legal if you have a private plate with less numbers and the letters are standard size and spacing, otherwise no they are not legal but on a sports car you will most likely get away with running one, but its completely your choice,

BTW all the bits highlighted with a black line are new.
Also anyone living with a dead VSA module, fitted a two tone horn,steering lock broken,door open beeper disconected, number plate on dashboard instead of the front of the car, and a few other goddies, as per my other thread, get an MOT done now then put things right before the next ones due.
