Question about bottom intake/grill and license plate

[skiprat]

Hello chaps,

This is only my second ever post here, I'm the proud owner of a 5door, manual, silver. I know nothing about vehicles beyond knowing what I like, and the 3 rules my ass. Had a question though.. is it possible/safe to move the license plate down off the nose of the car? It looks so awkward there, seems it would be a bit cooler looking if it were on that lower grill... which brings me to my second question.. can that lower grill be replaced with anything nicer/less-cheap looking? It doesn't look awful, but I'd like something else on there if possible... where should I look?

Oh yeah one more.. anyone had any door rattling issues? I'm getting a rattle from the drivers door about 50% of driving time... dunno if it's just something contracting and expanding in heat or what.. just know it's coming from the behind my left ear and down slightly when I'm driving...

maybe it's a bizzare new form of tinnitis or however you spell it...!

I have the license plate mounted on the lower grille that you are referring to (I think).

I bent my license plate *ever so slightly* in the middle, so that it would go with the curvature of the nose. I used zip ties to make the "mount".

I definately like that look A LOT more than when I had the plate on a holder up high.....my car is much more aggressive looking from the front.
