Ideas for a British licence plate for the new JCW!

Ok so I need to come up with a neat British licence plate numbers / letters for the new JCW. Even though I'm buying the JCW in Boston, MA I get to Register it in my home state of FL (and don't pay state tax!) so I always enjoy adding a custom foreign style plate to my Minis. Attached is my current one that has a chassis number for my Coupe to give you a idea of much room I have. Any suggestions??

Is it still like $10 to register all cars in Florida, or did they fix that? Just don't misspell anything like you did "licence" lol.

I would go for something like 'MINI JCWF' or 'F56 JCW', also if you want a really good quality and authentic number plate in the U.S., buy it from triple-c motors, http://www.triple-c.com/Products/ACR...2DACRYLIC%7CPR, they use the actual acrylic used in the U.K. For plates and the same font as well, they're also really affordable, $39.99 for a pair (front white, rear yellow), all the cars in my house have one, there is a picture in my photos of what they look like, I've used triple-c multiple times and have always been pleased with them.

Thank you!

Thank you for the reply! I have to see what I'm dealing with since the JCW will have no holes in the front for any plate. I'll have to see if I came somehow mount one on with out holes.

I usually use 3M outdoor double sided tape, I've only ever drilled holes once in my '08 clubby because the front bumper was to curved for tape, but the F56 front bumper is perfect for euro plates, the black bar that runs across the front is designed as a Euro plate holder.
