S2000: Operation Semi-Shaved

[pepsilol]

It reminds me of those chav Audi grills people but on that are really long if you get me, they look like a beard.

Did I post different pictures in my OP? I am not seeing the resemblance?

Edit - the light/shadow casting in my pictures is not the best so I can SOOORT of see how you get the impression of this. Might be because you think part of what is actually paintwork is grille.

I like it I hate 'brick' front number plates.

I think you're looking at the wrong car?

I think it looks great now, cleaner without the jets.

Probably not

I remebered seeing a program about a car that had to go through checks to make sure it was road legal (a kit car). I was sure it talked about numberplate positioning. Thinking back, it might have been indicators

Plate in the grille area looks really bad, and will kill airflow into the rad.

 

[Jonnycoupe]

Sticker plates are illegal now afaik?

And yes, it's a trade off. It does not look perfect but it looks better imo. It will not be to everyone's tastes but with the limited options available I am happy with it.

Sucks we have to run front plates at all in the UK. Major envy of US states where it is optional

Who cares? I run a 3/4 size vinyl one on my crappy Insight.

Each state has different laws, it's not that's it optional.

I think no badge on the front will look even better

 

[Sin_Chase]

I don't actually like the no badge look. It's the reason I chose to have slightly subtler smaller black chrome badges rather than shave/fill entirely.

 

[Sin_Chase]

I went and took some pics in better lighting conditions.

Honestly thought I was looking at a MX-5 for a moment, not a good change if it can do that.

The only changes are the numberplate being moved off a plinth and the headlight washers removed. How can that suddenly make it look more like an MX5 (especially as the MX5 has a numberplate plinth as well)?

 

[GarethSouthgate]

Looks a bit odd to me.

 

[Simon]

It's makes the front look shorter and more stubby. I think the plate looks better online with the headlights

The latest MX-5 has the plate in front of the grill too - http://www.google.co.uk/imgres?hl=e...&w=440&h=330&ei=BkFvT4jHLMrV0QWZuNWNAg&zoom=1
