What Do You Reckon?

[sparkystav]

Right i picked up a "Lexus" numberplate surround off eBay the other week and test fitted a plate into it today.

But i cant decide so what you all reckon?

Can either have the normal plate with Chrome Surround:

Or the GB plate i have on now:

Or a combination of the two?

Also; i have a second surround (they came as two) but i'm not using it so if someone wants it make me an offer. (though the plate just needs a bit trimming off each side to fit, or you could get a custom one built to fit.)

i'm not liking the surround mate.

i can see why you went for it tho, but in reality i'd say no.

voted accordingly as they say :)

[aaronabbott]

as they say stav if it aint broke dont fix it

[DJ Wozza]

Very close run things. Looks very american IS300 (bit tacky) IMO, but depends really if you like it mate.

I did however very nearly buy something identical to this last year, but decided against it at the last minute.

[Rob's Lexx]

prefer the standard plate matey :winky:

[sparkystav]

LOL looks like i'm keeping the original so far.

[Bazza]

use original plate but cut it down

throw that chrome trash

[iceman67]

its a bit bling bling stav not for you m8 B)

[Chris.S]

Sorry i have to say that the surround does nothing for the car

[Mr Mole]

Dont like the surround and dont like the GB plate either

why not get one with an England Flag

people up North have Scottish Flags on their plates looks better than the GB plates

[adrian71]

standard plate stav and sell the surround to a chav :D

[Rolex]

try getting the chrome surrond powder coated black? or possible another colour if you are not sure about the chrome.

Stick with the GB plate, no surround... The George cross idea does puzzle me, showing English pride on a Japanese car, I just don't get it.. Had a fella round here who decorated his Mercedes with a George cross and three lions for the World cup.. Clearly I missed something

[Geoffers]

Personally, I prefer it without the surround mate. As for the plate, how do you think it would look with the sides cut down and moved slightly lower so its vertically central as well? Making the whole lot central?

Transporter - Its about the person too... not just the country of the car.

[whiteman]

Do not use the chrome suround it looks chavish, if you do you will be BANNED!!!!!

[Rikos]

Not keen on that surround at all mate

[TomCooper]

and somethign like this

[WylieCoyote]

I like the one above, that's really nice.

[bridgerippa]

maybe wouldnt look so bad if there was more chrome to complement in imho. reckon it could look good black with just the LEXUS highlighted in chrome- kinda like a rebadge after debadge lol.

[johnboy]

No to the chrome surround, but get a large one made up like the pic tom put up.

I had the same on the back of mine

[Rsarin]

no chrome,youre better than that stav!

[sparkystav]

Stick with the Normal GB plate then.

But.....theres 3 people that voted yes to the Chrome, If any of them want to take the surrounds (i got a pack of two) off my hands then drop me a pm.

No to the chrome.

Also remove the GB and get a plain 6" (the wider original plate). I got mine from Lexus main dealer, only about £8 and looks better than the 4" narrow one the previous owner had put on.... Personal opinion though.

why not have a plate with no GB,looks so much neater

[Rory]

I voted GB with no surround, I got lexus logos on mine tho...

Have you reverted back to the original letter spacing? as opposed to M 5TAV? or was that just for the photos
