If you don't want to go the whole hog on Personalised plates, I found out a couple of months ago that for $80 you can get a slimline front of your standard QLD plates.
Good option if you want to keep the plate center mounted but don't like how much a standard fills the grille opening.

Finally got around to take an updated engine bay shot. Looking pretty tidy at the moment. Keen to do some more this year though.

PS. Anyone know where to buy spacers for mx5's? Preferably quality cheaper ones.

Update: purchased and fitted garage star door bushings and would recommend for anyone looking to stiffen up their car quickly and easily. Took 5 minutes to install and eliminated quite a lot of door/hood rattle whilst also making the car feel very tight and stiff. Amazing what they can do for such a simple product at around $110 AUD shipped.
