It's a retro-reflective white sticker with black stick on letters/numbers - possibly not strictly compliant with the law but never been queried by MOT or Plod

1977 1500 Midget - de-bumpered and glass fronted.

Wish we could do that in the US in those states that require front plates. Our more square plates are hard to mount of the small front ends of de-bumpered Spridgets. Many choose to go without, but that is an invitation to imperial entanglements.

They all look really good. it makes me wish I hadn't spent the money for the chrome bumpers to do the conversion from rubber to chrome. I guess I could always post them for sale when time comes to really commit.

Thankfully in Michigan we dont have to pay for the superfluous front plate.

But that would still be a neat look!
