License Plate Sizes ?
I have a brass license plate frame from Ecklers on the rear and need a similar frame for the front of my 88. I tried the frame in the front and it doesn’t quite fit – is the front a different size to the rear ? I don’t know anything about US sized plates.

BTW to make the right size I scanned my plate, photochopped it and printed on glossy laminated paper – it still looks embossed !

I believe it is a different size. I tried it once with a standard size frame & it didn't fit. I think the front was made for the plate only. :cool: :flag

Re: License Plate Sizes ? (91vetteboy)
Thanks 91 vetteboy, I wonder why they make the front and back different ?
My frame is almost too big for the rear, I enlarged the holes so that I could shift the reversing lights out, still not quite enough room.
Any suggestions anyone ?

I ran out to the garage, measured the front & it is just a little smaller than the rear.
