Big plate looks the best! The small one looks out of proportion to the rear of the car! Thumbs Up

I thought the dealers put the oversize ones on from new. The local dealer here does and one or two others up and down the UK I have seen. Andyfr

Looking in your gallery I can see you already have an oversize plate.

If you check the height of the front plate against the rear you will see what I mean. Andyfr

Silly question, but does anyone know what they use to fix the number plates to the FL2.
Mine look like they are fixed with doublesided 'sticky fixers' - certainly not screw-fixed?

Big back plates on LandRovers might stem from the Jaguar link up as they have for many years back rear plates the size of Africa (The old black and white/silver ones looked Cool IMHO).

Small plate (Not mine....)
