Default Just curious to ask you guys...

hey everyone.

i have a EG hatch civic over here in the UK, over here our tailgates come standard to fit rectangular numberplates, do all the USDM EG hatch's come with numberplate surrounds on tailgates to fit square ones?? if so this might sound like abit of a mad question but would anyone want to ship me over one? i really wouldnt be fussed on what condition the paint is aslong as it wasnt dented, i could pay through paypal.

heres a picture of a UKDM tailgate..



Cheers for your time

Luke

Judging by my friend's recent purchase of a JDM '92-'95 Civic sedan trunk, the license plate holes are in different locations on JDM and USDM vehicles.

Since there was no way to change out the location of the plate holes for the sedan (they're in the metal body of the trunk), we had to drill holes through her license plate so it would fit on the new trunk.

Are you sure the mounting for the license plate is on the tailgate or on the license plate garnish (the removable part)? Some models and bodies might have it one place, while another has it elsewhere.

as far as i know mate over in the UK, the JDM tailgates are just bolted on straight onto the actual tailgate itself. dont think it comes with a license plate garnish on the jdm ones over here
