New in town!

Re: New in town!

I'm not as good with wheels... let see if I can get a lucky guess with those too

Yeah, I was thinking about running a europlate and putting my AB plate in my window until I came across the velcro idea. The dealer drilled my bumper though, so I'd need to have the plastic sanded down, filled, and repainted. Maybe I'll do that if I ever buy the 35 Edition front bumper that I've been eying for the past little while haha

Whats your guess??

Yeah that would be too much of a pain haha. I think it would be to noisy rattling agains the window anyways. I need to make it out to a meet or something sometime soon :/ haha I was at one in early spring, it was still cold, I still had my black R when it was on bags then. jeesh.

Re: New in town!

Someone here on got a ticket (might have been just a warning), for having a Europlate on the back. The reasoning they used I believe was it was a plate for the wrong jurisdiction or something.

I need pics before I can guess haha.

Yeah, I figure it's not worth it unless I'm already getting something painted. I put my europlate in my back window occasionally and it rattles a bit. I've had cops behind me when it's there and I've never gotten any attention. And yeah, you really do! I remember seeing you there but we never talked haha

Re: New in town!

i dont think it is illegal to have your AB plate in the back window, as long as it is clearly visible back there. i think it would be sweet to run full europlate on that super sexy bumper

That was me!

Back in the day when I had my MK3 I put in a euro plate tub and hence decided Euro Plates would be awesome to run and I did the velcro thing especially for shows and could switch my plates quickly. One day I decided to give it a run with the Euro on and the AB in the window, I did not make it an entire day before I was pulled over and the police wondered why I had done such a thing, and yes because I was displaying a plate from the wrong jurisdiction it was a problem. I told them I had just been at a car show and forgot to switch back and since I could do it in a quick flash they let me off with a warning, but I never tried it again.

Re: New in town!

Colin runs his Europlate and his Alberta plate simultaneously and said he only got "warned" once but just told the cops he was coming back from a photoshoot and forgot to take the euro one off. Personally, I think that bumper needs a europlate. F*ck the police lol

Re: New in town!

Haha we will see what I do once it's mounted. I like the Velcro idea.. I don't like tickets or too much attention from the police lol

Re: New in town!

Yeah the police attention would definitely get annoying really quickly... That's why I decided not to get my personalized AB plate haha

I was pretty sure it was you, but thought it might have been Graeme in his Mk3 (new it was a mk3 lol).

Doesn't ANYONE have pictures of your old mk3? So Hot.

Re: New in town!

I wish someone had some pics, not sure what happened with mine but I have looked many times to try and find one or two, probably the car I miss the most out of all of the ones I have had!

Re: New in town!

I'll go with that Sean said haha. The spokes almost look like they're a bit too close together to be RSIIs, but I don't know what else they could be... I'm not very good with wheels haha
