Nice to see someone else who is in Kuwait! Do you have the new, European-style plate (long and narrow) or the old USA-style?

I see why you would want to change it... Mine has the new plates:


I am pretty sure that you could go to the Traffic Department and get a new front plate. Other than that, you would need the plate support.. a piece of plastic that bolts onto the bumper (under the plate itself). Looks much cleaner than your current setup IMO.

PS. Think I saw you at Sultan Center..painted headlights kind of stood out for me. Hope to be doing mine soon!

Hmmm...if you have the same plate number, maybe you could have new plate on front, and old plate on the rear? Other than that, not sure what else you could do. This old plate is so big relative to the front of the car, there is no nice place to put it....

Oh..I just remembered...there's a plate holder that pops up the plate with a remote. That way, in normal driving no front plate, but when police want to say hi...you pop it out

Now that's ridiculous. Kuwait is obviously making a lot of money from us if they can afford to sell their gas domestically for so cheap.
