I got my new custom license plates last week. Oddly 'Jeep' was already taken! LOL! But I was excited to find 'WK2' wasn't. Of course who other than a Jeep Grand Cherokee guy would be excited about 'WK2' as a license plate?!
They looked great when they arrived from PPQ, but I wasn't happy with the license plate holders I had. I searched around on the interwebs and found a great company called
Lakin Custom Plate Brackets down in Tassie. Philip the owner there was great (highly recommended). I sent the plates down to him and he made custom brackets for the plates. Excellent fit and finish and the front bracket even follows the contours of the front bumper.
I wasn't happy with the OEM mounting system (screws into plastic) for the front plate. I'd already lost 1 plate on Fraser Island. So I put 4 stainless steel nutserts into the front bumper. Philip over @ Lakin was nice enough to customise the front bracket so I could mount the plate using 4 stainless steel screws into the nice new nutserts.
Cheers,
Bill
