Can't you put it on the spoiler under the car? I have to have plates aswell in Sweden but it is ok to have it tucked under the car.

Like this.

with that said, your plates look very "normal" on your car and nice looking car!

On the contrary. My plates are what we call "US plates". Smaller than our standard plates and made to fit cars imported from the us. Everyone who has a car sold in Europe wants this type of plate but can't have them.

The Fikse Wheels look great and really do a nice job of filling the rear wheel wells.

The wheels do look good - and it just isn't fair to park a Vette of any year along side of a Mustang. Advantage Vette every time. LOL!

Happy 4th of July everyone and thanks to all that work hard to keep the world safe.

I've got nothing against Mustangs. They are good looking and fast cars. I just prefer Vettes.

Shelby Series One wheels. 18x10 front 18x12 rear. no longer available but some sets come up for sale occassionally. Thats how I got mine a few years back. found a guy with a set of 6 (2 front 4 rear) never been mounted for sale.

Car is not for sale, I have got WAAAAAY to much into it to turn back now

Got the car back from a brake job tonight and tried to catch those magic long summer evenings we have in Sweden on my way home. 10:15 PM and the sun is just setting.
