I mounted mine with numberplate sticky pads. The front one has little to stick to but has never fallen off, even when I had an unexpected off road excursion.

There are piccies in my archive.

the nosecone on mine doesnt have any flat area at all.id be worried about sticking to that
on the rear it has a hoop the tyre sits on.was trying to figure out a bracket then stick a plate to that

I remember seeing someone who used cabinet hinges for their front plate, which looked pretty good, although slightly illegal as the plate conviniently dissapears under the car at speed.

A long time ago, when I built my 2B, I riveted two bent strips of ally under the nose cone and stuck the plate on to them.
