Hello all!

I'm in the process of planning a trip to France in my 4/4. I think I'm all set, but I'm thinking about the UK badge.

The rear of my car is aluminium, so the magnetic badges are clearly not going to work. My father has suggested attaching a suitable plate to the rear bumper,
but it occurred to me that getting a number plate with the correct UK mark would be both easier and cheaper.

So, my query: do I need the UK on both the front and back, or can I save money and just get a new rear plate?

I just went with the stickers that go on the left side of the number plates. Plenty on interweb.

Have fun in France

1992 4/4, so I'll just avoid those areas.

Thank you all for the suggestions re stickers. I'll have a look and see if there's room on the number plate.

Found an alumium plate in a motorbike shop.
Painted it and put the badge on.
Bended it 90 degrees and screwed it on from the under side.

In the mean time I found the matching Morgan sports blue.
