Cool FS: safety check sticker plates


12/29/03 - EDIT: new (but not the best quality) pictures are on page 2 of this thread

happy holidays!

2004 is upon us which means that everyone will need new safety check stickers (unless your car was bought new this year and has the 2-year safety check . anyhow, i had a bunch of safety check sticker plates made for the MINI gang and wanted to see if anyone here wanted one.

details:
- handmade from stainless steel and can bolt on using 2 or 4 screws (not aluminum like the ones they sell at many car/aftermarket stores).
- i have plates that can hold 2 or 4 stickers, for those with recon.

this is what the 2-sticker plate looks like:
backside:


front:


this isn't the plate i'm selling but the picture gives you an idea of how nice the stainless steel is (originally, the plates were made like this one but it made the license plate uneven in thickness so we extended the plate and made it look like the current design)


in can bolt on using any of the 4 holes. picture of the finished product:


cost is $15 for the 2-sticker holder and $20 for the 4-sticker holder. i will try to take a picture of the 4-sticker holder on b_drift's car sometime this week

omg, i totally forgot about putting the pics up with with christmas and everything! i do have plates for everyone who has replied to me via PM or post. i replied to everyone who PM'd me so i dunno why the messages didnt go through?

anyhow, just in case, please email me at: minigroupbuys@hotmail.com and i'll get back to you that way. i will most likely have to meet people individually as it will probably be difficult to coordinate 10+ people.

thanks!

costs as much as a new safety inspection, so depends on where you take your car. you might be able to peel the stickers off your bumper if you do it really carefully....that way, you can save a little bit of money.
