Trading the the Tuscan in the next few weeks for a T350 though not too impressed by the bent front number plate. Has anyone put a 'sticker' style number plate on the front? If so is there a place that does decent quality ones or do I end up at a local dodgy motor store with Bob the builder making a temporary plate for a trailer he's borrowed and the teen racer who keeps knocking his normal plate off his dramatically lowered mean machine.
No offence intended if your name is Bob and your a builder etc, etc.

Didn't think the stick on plates were legal anymore?

Mine has a stick on plate which my dealer organised. They used a local signwriting firm.

I'm amazed no one has come up with a perspex fairing shaped to fit the nose and then cut a number plate sized area out of the nose and fitted the plate behind it. When finished it would be perfectly smooth with a recesed plate. Get the idea? Rich...

Christof had a mod on the front of his T350 that allowed the front plate to be mounted flat.

When he posted his pics, the car was still in the UK before it's 1k service and he took it back to Germany with him so I am presuming that this is something that the factory can do.

Drop him an email, he may have more info.

I personally prefer having an acrylic plate that is shaped rather than using a stick-on-job, seems as bit caravan-club to me (all IMO so no offence).

Fish has screwed his on to the front so it is flat, granted it is a little easier as we have such a short number so the plate is smaller.
