alright maybe its a dumb question but i wanna make this legit... when you put the cusco/cusco style plate relocate on the front bumper.. i see alot of people rocking it on the driver side..

now in japan do they rock it on the passanger or driver side? im eventually going to be doing the conversion and im kinda curious. cause i see in the banner on the top its on the driver side. im going to be mounting it on my driver side but when i convert i wanna make sure i put it on the right side cause im anal like that about things.

thanks fella's

im almost positive its the drivers side.

I'm putting mine on my (rhd) passenger side so as not to block the oil cooler, intake air will be drawn through the headlight housing. I think [and I know this isn't the effect you're going for, but you can always ban me for saying it

] that it's more important not to impede any useable air inlet.

passenger side on a rhd car...so jon, yours would go on your passenger, which is now your drivers side (lhd)

Or if you get the tilt to, they put it in the center but slanted

yeah they dont have any place to put it in particular.... i was asking a tuner shop here that goes to the races in hachinohe (might have misspelled it) and they put it where ever thats out of the way but still visible... if not they get an adapter that tilts the LP to let air go past it with out creating more drag...

i.e.

off to the passenger side...

so i would assume its more on your preference

You could go totally pimp Mach 5 style and put it on hinges so that at speed the plate is facing the ground (hanging inside bumper) I've seen this done on a few cars where fronts are mandatory and it's sick!
