Hi Guys..

What is the deal with square front number plates? I've got a drift kit on so the best place to hang a plate is a 11x8 square plate on the near side front. Just wandering if that is illegal, and if anyone else has their plate in that position?

I've already ordered one so its a little late, just wandering if I'll get any bother from the plod..

Pic below so you can see what I'm on about..

you can get away with it, simply because you have the body kit.
the police normaly only get anoyed with cars that have small plates when they have a recess for a normal size plate. plus jap imports are allowed a smaller plate by law, although police dont like it.
you can ask the dvla for a cover note, this is what afew of my friends have done, so they have something to show the police.

Never had a problem with mine:




Although I've moved it to the bottom right like where you want it - job's a good un :)

Import plates are fine and you can also have thinner fonts like mine. Bike plates - no way... too small :wack:

off topic but whats size/offset are those rims on the first s15?

The fronts are 18x9.5 with 215/45/18 tyres, and the rears are 18x10 with 245/40/18.

Not sure on the offset as the lad I bought the car from put them on, but he didn't know the offset, as I asked him. I'll try and find out though...
