put it underneith the bumper but bent the brackets to its angled under it. if the cops stop you say you must have hit a bump in the road, and bend it back.

this would be pointless hwere i live as i stay on a farm and there are 2 bumps on and off the concrete every day at least once, then there is the shitty country roads and if i was to pull over road for tanker etc it would be ripped off in no time let alone bent up 
where can you get smaller plates made? dont fancy one as small as a bike plate andstandard fills the full gap in bumper and looks shite

Get a 3/4 size plate and stick it where the standard plate would go. Looks daft having plates low down in the bumper if its not meant to be there
