OK, here goes my contribution for 2013.

After seeing a number of different methods of mounting the front number plate with a front spoiler, I've measured and included here John Wilson's bracket. The new spoiler that I bought, I chose to fill the hole up, so have included a picture of another front spoiler destined for Yella (a work in progress) to show you where the holes are located in the spoiler. Enjoy.

Apologies in advance for a post of substance. Hope it is of use.

Rana on!

Cool, good to see one fitted. Someone just asked once, and I promised to measure and draw it up. Just delivering on that promise.

The slots look good. How much you selling them for Red? Would prolly be heaps easier than making one up.

I was very happy with the fitment of the bracket I bought off Red.

Mmm, since I have two, I might just drill another hole and cut the slot. Don't know what I will do with the older looking one. Spare.

Buy one off Red!!!! Save yourself the hassle.

Alternatively if you buy a new front spoiler from John Wilson Fibreglass, they come with a bracket. That's where my shiny one came from.

Yup. Has somebody taken over his shop? Hopefully I won't need to find out for a while!

Why can't you use the original plate mounts on the nose cone??

^^^
As the number plate tabs get bent back or cut off to fit the spoiler

Errrrrr........ ummmmm..... hmmmmm

I do have the dimensions for the bracket somewhere on my pc I could supply you. Might be quicker to make it up yourself.

I'm sure it came from this forum but I can't remember who to credit for it... so thanks to whoever created/posted it originally!
