Thie is something ALL cossie owners should have in their car:
That WILL lose if you make a hard braking. And it WILL be a lethal projectile...

Mount it on the front(under the expandable part) of the passenger seat instead.
And then you can reach it from the driversside too.

what do you mean about the plate?
No offence but i think white saffs suck

Davie 3 door
cheers for that mate. funny you say that though because i think that of yours i've seen it a few time lately in pics at meets and even saw it at croft. wheels look ace on yours

euan
why would i get pulled for the plate then? It is 100% legal. Has correct size letters, correct colour background and correct distance between letters and the edge of the plate
sorry if you mean i must get pulled to tell me how smart it looks

smit
yes its true

euan
the real stealth bomber lives on mate

ahhhh. i HATE plates that are made to look like something they are not! if some people can look at it and see CHOP L then thats fine for me
Nothing worse than something like CDS reading COS using stupid fonts etc! Does my head in

The bomber is being broken. The shell will live on in another form with a new owner. Its not my place to say anymore.

just meant that it could look alot more like CHOP with a bit of illigal spacing etc..

most people do the illegal thing until they get stopped a few times then the put it right..
