Smooth Grill - Number plate....

[monte]

Here is a short clip if I can get it to work.

I must apologise for the terrible engine noise!  

Car had just been started from cold early in the morning and my iPhone picked up every rattle as if I'd left a tin of screws on top of the engine

Looks like it holds well

My plan was to use the magnets to stick on my pressed plate.

Would the suckers work with a pressed plate?

On the pressed plates its just a matter of sticking them as normal and then taping the suckers onto the back with some duck tape. Go all round the suckers.

….Big Al sent me a pic of his pressed plates with the suckers taped.

So duct tape them on the back of the plate?

Yes can still see the video.

Iknow this is a very old thread but how have you got on with magnets/suction cups?
Obviously been running them a while now so wondering which is the best option.
Ordered a smooth grill yesterday :D cheers guys

^^^^ Ive had both suction cups and/or magnets on mine for years and both as good as each other. I prefer the cups, slightly less dirt and grit etc etc gets trapped but BOTH will cause some minor scratching, nothing that can't be polished out though.
