Nice - looks just like mine

I'm also interested in the Lakin plate brackets - post your photos when you're done!

What LED kit did you order?

+1 on lakin plate brackets. I have them on QLD prestige plates, front and back on my13 Passat wagon. phil (from memory) will go out of his way to help out.

Post a photo! I need to see these bad boys in situ.

+2 for the Lakin plates.

Have them with NSW slim-line white (since I took these pics, have painted the front one to match the car). Much better than the std plastic cr-p VW put on the front of the car or the dealer self-advertising!

Some pics from my one (no order, just grabbed them):














Sorry, not an R36 . . .

Thanks - looks good! Definite improvement over the stock items as you say.

Keen to see what the Lakin plate holder looks like over a brushed aluminium R36 front grille though...

Sorry, can only go so far (have B7, not R36) . . . I think it would look great on the R36 as the Lakin plate mount design (depending on your license plate size/style) will either be almost invisible (like my rear plate), or in the case of my front plates have a little exposed (as the license plate is smaller than the holes in the bumper).

Was going to go full-size Euro plates on my Passat BUT the price asked by NSW gov't ($400!) was too much - I am OK with being ripped-off a little for a good product ($99 for the slimline plates was almost acceptable), but that was too much for even me to stomach! Don't get me started on how they charge ridiculous amounts for what are stamped pieces of painted thin aluminium . . .

Depending on how fussy you are, you can have the exposed mount painted to match your car (like I did) - just got to remember to take a photo! You can also be 'extreme' and have the mount chromed to match the front grille
