Looks great Sudesh. A good reminder of what a sunny day looks like with a Noble closing in.

NSX looks on its toes as always .. is it just the angle of photo or are you running with a soft glass tint somewhere?

Hi Paul,

Yeah well spotted! The rear firewall window has a light tint on it.

The rear hatch window was also tinted when I got the car but that was one of the first things to go. I obviously didnt bother removing the tint on the firewall window as I quite liked that and its not too obvious.

The car looks great and you inspire with your attention to detail.

However can you PLEASE sort out that front number plate :) Get a custom made one to fit the nice short registration you have.

Many thanks!

The plate doesnt bother me, I prefer the standard size to be honest.

....or lose it completely.....It's a common fault; NSX front number plates falling off....honest Officer.

would love to do this myself, but its not worth the hassle you would end up getting. i also hate that look with the plater wedged up on the window instead ... looks tatty and again i could see hassle's from the 'piggies' re this

Lovely photo. Agree that you need a smaller plate. I've had no problems with a 3/4 sized one.

Now you lot have gone on about it, it does look a little odd! Probably because there's no plinth behind it.

So long as the spacing & font is correct, would there be a problem lopping off the ends?

This is what I was meaning. Why have all that overhanging white. I wouldn't change the font size either just stick to the required minimum margins.

Looking great mate BTW!

I have a 5 digit/ letter plate
removed the number plate plinth, cropped off the excess at each end
bonded 3" brackets directly onto the back of the number plate with spacing to allow bolting into the original threads on the front bumper
This set the plate back a little and in my opinion looks better balanced
The number plate is also a little lower, with it being smaller in area have not noticed any cooling problems

Maybe following Ary & Chris's ideas, a small pair of hinges on the back would allow the number plate to rotate into the air intake at higher speeds, improving airflow to the radiatior...

Can't see any issues with that. And I mean it truvelo...

I think you'd need some good SPECS to notice any difference!

Thats it Ary!

I've been playing around with the way the wind bends the plate at speed and deflects the air out to the wings and travels up the side into the air scoop, full on CAI lol

Seriously though, never really thought about doing anything with the plate, has never bothered me that much.
