JDM holder+13x7 inch front number plate - how did you attach yours?
without screwing it on? I'm looking to basically glue it on, I assume any Evostick type product will hold it well enough?

lots of places that sell plates online, also sell VERY strong double sided padded tape.

i used that with mine.![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
i think drilling/screwing on plates looks awful!!!
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
this stuff is available from WHSmith and the like, most even say
"can use for number plates"
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
also alot quicker to do than measuring drill holes out.![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)

nah jim, the number plate onto the holder
- the holder is screwed into the bumper so its fine.
I'm just a little nervous as I now have a double line front plate and I know it's going to overhang the JDM holder.
Don't want the fecker to come off and break something on it's way to the scenery.![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)

I missed a trick with getting the tape along with the number plates![d'oh! #-o](./images/smilies/eusa_doh.gif)

(dont laugh) poundland and is very strong indeed held my plate for the last year and a half.

I used aryldite
(spelling?) works a treat! ![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
I used the double sided tape before and a brief foray to the exiting side of 140 relieved me of the plate!!!
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
Glue it my friend
