whats a matter with bolts and caps to hold the plate on ?

Messy.

I've always just used Velcro but then I do have an obsession with buying number plates

heavy duty velco on my first car was bomb proof, I barely got the plate off when I scrapped it

Nice new clean plates make a car look much better.

I thought I read somewhere that Compomotive ones fit?

I tried multiple compomotive ones to no avail when I had the rl7's you now own until I found the correct raceline centres.

Warm the plate in the middle then gently bend. Then you can match the bumper shape and stick on.

Yeah I know how to cheers but I really dont want to! Screws and caps ftw

They are later Revolution centre caps for RFX etc.
I too have heard that Compomotive ones fit.

IIRC the genuine Raceline ones used to fit from behind the rim.

I never tried revolution items so may be worth investigating however they dont look the nicest cap in the world do they?

All of these are fitted with Compomotive centre caps so they should fit

Cheers Liam but the majority of them look like the genuine raceline centres. They look very similar to comp items but are a lot shallower in their depth. Check Martin kelsons thread from when he had his wheels refurbished as it shows the genuine centres. I know this as they're my old wheel/centres setup.

Screws/caps ftw Edd!

Messy.

Nah not on this build !

It certainly does.... as soon as I buy a car genuine plates/tax disc holder and dealer stickers usually go on. Looks much cleaner/proper imo.

As said above they may but Ive tried and failed with comp centres before. But Im not actually that fussed truth be told! I'll paint the rear covers that stand out and that will do if I cant find some proper fitting centres.

You require these sir

This! Originally fitted at the dealership. Are you on turrets at the rear Nick? Go much lower? Looking fantastic!

No rear turrets here just the short bodied gaz coilover setup. As it stands theirs still a lot of adjustment available to go much lower but I wont go any further than another 10mm now as Ill be happy at that.
