well dodgy. There was a guy who had made something similar on a bike. He eventually got pulled over and they found it... also found out he was a cop!

i'd rather build in a 3 plate revolving mechanism

even naughtier to display someone elses plates i imagine but suppose you could always do it with scrapped cars.

It's OK for use in the good old US as some manufacturers put the fuel filler cap behind the number plate for cosmetic reasons, cleaner lines and all that (as if that would make an American car look any better ).





Tell them about the bent treacle edges!

My Mercedes 250S (W108) had one as standard, the fuel filler was behind the number plate. As it got older the weaker the spring got, so as speed increased, the lower the plate got as it was pulled by the low pressure zone behind the car. I knew nothing of this until a nice traffic officer pointed it out!
