Why would they? More chance of leaking water because ive drilled them to put on with screws rather than cutting them down...

Wish I could cut down the front plate on my Punto. But they fitted the plate with screws at the edges so it would leave visable holes if I did..

I would refuse a car if they did that... no need for it..

Mine has got visible holes but the colour hides them well.

It's part of the bumper moulding. There are little square holes and clips in there. Guess it's a security precaution as numberplates seem to get nicked quite a bit thiese days
