I was planning on making a bracket to attach the plate somewhere around where the upper shock mount is, and for turn signals, I'll just go to the aftermarket with some stick on L.E.D. signals. (I know it won't be DOT, but the cops don't really care in ND)
Rear ugly plastic thing removal suggestions
What are some ideas of how we can remove that hideous rear license plate holder? We'd have to move the turn signals or reprogram the rear brake LED. And what can we do for the plate? Use a bracket on the rear mud guard? Hell, I may even try printing my plate as a half-size sticker and pasting it on the mud guard. So, ideas?

I think you could also remove the bolt where the exhaust is held to the frame, and sneak a side mounted bracket in. Kind of like this one for the busa.

You would to have move the mounting point to the outside instead of an inch in.

Yes that is probably doable. Also I saw a photo where the guy did not remove the entire thing, he cut it and left the first "shelf" or first part of the fender on. The only thing he removed was all the stuff that hangs down after the fend goes back. If that makes any sense. It looked good with a bit of the original black plastic back there but he still needed to mount the license plate and turn signals. The good news is that the entire contraction comes off with only four bolts.
Not diggin the top photo at all. I will fab my own with that is all that is available come August.
stuff will come with time, I figure during the late fall winter accessories will be more readily available
If its just the tag/fender piece you want gone, it unbolts and comes right off.. Just fab a plate bracket and run no rear blinkers for a little bit
Ohh perfect, just use some L brackets and fab something to bolt it straight in. I thought it was all one molded piece, so for days I've been thinking about dremmeling and how I could get it smooth where the fender is cut lolYes that is probably doable.

I hate it so much I was going to burn it off with a torch if necessary. :yawn:
Im digging that one.
Good thread, I agree something has to be done with that huge attachment! I will probably just tuck the plate up in front of the wheel unless another slim/clean option comes up.
