Thinking of putting standard plate back on...?

Am I the odd one out? I'm thinking of putting the front OEM numberplate holder back on.

Even though the hole's been smoothed over and the plate is on the right, I think the original location and shape of plate just suits the lines better.

Anyone else feel the same?

I know the feeling, especially on the FL. Numberplates on these cars just seem to look awkward wherever we put them! I've put mine a little off to the side, not quite as much as you. Just need the hole smoothing. Couldn't get on with sticky plates.

I think if you put the current size plate in the middle (or a sticky) you won't want to go OEM

Kinda looks like a nana with no teeth pulling her front lip down, with the plate not in the middle

It's up to you really, but I'm not a fan of where you currently have it.

These are two good options for location IMO:

Mines in the middle and a smaller sized plate, I like it! But I like things symmetrical haha! (y)

I too like the original centre mounted plate/shape. If you really like it, go for it although it would be a shame to drill a hole into the bumper after it's been filled/smoothed. As suggested above, I would consider a sticky plate or a smaller UK shaped plate that doesn't overhang the front of the bumper.

Sexy.

Not a fan really, think they look a bit cheap... doubt it would look right in the middle over the ridge where I ideally want it.

CW location looks even more out of place, think the blue one wins that one. ;)
