Simple Question - Badge Position

Getting the front clam repainted whilst on hols. . Will be done for my return on Monday.

Ordered new badge but forgot to check on positioning...

Could someone measure the distance between lower edge of rad outlet to top of badge for me please :-)

Thanks guys.

I have actually ordered a self adhesive front plate thinking the unbroken lines of the front would look much better. Martin, do you have a front-on pic of your car? (As if i have to ask.....) :-)

Looks all wrong to me amigo - too busy!

[peterguk]

My MOT guy says perfectly legal providing legal plate, i.e. correct size, reflective material, font etc...

Do you reckon the police will accept that as a defence and put the points on his license instead?

The DVLA site explicitly says that there are no stick on plates which can meet the regs.

You are better off with nothing and then it is just a fine with no points.

This has been done to death in any number of forums.

It's not widely advertised but the US NSA has to re-calibrate the RGB colour balancer circuit on all of their satellites whenever they pass over Spain - this adds 3 cents to the US tax-dollar to cover costs!

A serving traffic policeman told me it was legal - That's how my car is...
