Adam,
before you start cutting I'll take and post a couple more pictures of the cut bumper. I actually cut a bit out of the black lower central section which has the horizontal flat bit behind as well (not shown in this picture). This gave it a bit more strength and retained the fixings.
cheers,
John.

Plate is still in the same place on the bonnet, still illegal as it can get!

Square plate still in jiffy bag in garage waiting till Jim is back on the road with his steel bumpers fitted etc, then that will be going on.

Reasons the 'stick-on' is still on is that Jim is off the road at the moment, if I remove it, I will have to get rid of the 'sticky residue', probably have to t-cut the paintwork, and I have 100 & 1 other jobs going on at the moment. LoL!


Ours in exactly the same place ... I just figure an illegal stick on plate can still be read and is better than fitting a legal one that has a high possibility of getting broken when offroading.
My MOT tester knows the legal plate is only fitted for the MOT and my local Plod donot seem to worry

Hey Johnniehec when you cut your bumper down did you have to re inforce the bottom or have you just left it hanging? as I have had a look under and it seems like it is attached to the black skid plate so if I cut it all off will the bumper just be hanging on by the top part?

I have just recieved my self adhesive plate today and a couple of things I have noticed> Is it normal for each letter to be on separately and it seems to be a slight grey in colour not true white, is that normal?

All the sizes are correct though!
