License Plate Relocator: Minority Report

rgsoundf · 03-14-2009, 02:51 PM

Just completed the mod, but am not at all sure it looks better. I mean, aside from the obvious, such as JDM look, certain trend in tuner community, etc. (I will leave the restricted airflow reason out), I don't really see the overall looks improvement. I will not go back to the stock, or rather, dealer installed, in-the-middle-of-the-bumper version, but do you really think that it looks better?

looks good

I hate when the dealer drills the bumper though

Your car has a nipple.

I guess it looks better since the Civic logo is left justified, so now your plates match.

I am going to have to do the same thing as you,with the nipple and all. Anything looks better than stock.

I always think it looks better. I have mine off until I get a fix it ticket, but I already have a plate relocator ready at home

Definite improvement....now just lose the deflector haha.

i've had mine off for a yr. no issues yet in sd. but when i do need to put it back on......relocater FTW!

I think it looks better off of the actual bumper. It looks a tiny bit high for my tastes. errrrrr looks like the dealer screwed you too with the drilled bumper

Would that be right justified?

lol Waz up Celcius.

To OP, I like it it looks good with the rest of the front end. I like the flipped plate a little bit more though.

I know man, right. I got it from CHH when I just got my car, put some helluva lot of elbow grease (their podcast wasn't updated for this deflector version), so now I am kinda reluctant to part with it, but agreed, it does look minivan soccer-Mom styel
