When I was driving home from putting down my XR6 deposit yesterday, I dreamed up a license plate for it. Now, the pattern will only be available on premium style plates, but later I saw an AU and it had a premium on the rear and it left the lower left and right screw holes exposed which, I thought, looked a bit ugly. Yet I seem to recall seeing other AUs with premium plates and not noticing this before. Are there some model AUs that only have a top left and right screw hole, and others that have all four, which are obviously designed for full size numberplates? Any idea what my 2000 AUII XR6 would have? It had a full size plate on when I was test driving it, but I don't recall whether it was affixed by two or four screws. Cheers!

Bugger, really? I guess I've just never noticed before. I guess there's no way to make it look good when using the smaller plates, then? :(

I could indeed, but it was a fair hike. I'll be back there in a week's time to pick up the car, I'll just hold off my plans for world number plate domination until then
