You could get a blanking plate. Apart from that there are not many options tbh

you could either put your number plate there or even build around it with the plate in the middle...

you could also maybe build some kind of breaking light into it or design your own cover.....


just some thoughts :wink:

Theres also a Kuomi/Kouki(I think) rear plate which is clear red (like the brake lights) with a horizontal ribbed effect.

Chop-shop are also bringing one out soon which will be a one part piece for the lights and centre. Haven't got any clue what it looks like.

Everyone looks at me when I drive down the road now....... wish I could read minds.

I really can't make my mind up on those blanking plates. Sometimes I like them, sometimes I really dont. :?

The one part things just remind me of the mid 80s. Very out of date!
