I go along with Vrecksler about the license hiding most of the good work. And what would you do about the turn signals? Most of the really nice undertails don't allow for turnsignals at all.

I'd have to see the the trunk undersides but I don't doubt that you can get 90% of the effect for just a little time and a hacksaw blade. Just leave a little lip for the plate to mount onto.

Here's an example of what a couple of hours (mostly spent fretting about the cutting :D ) and a hand saw can do for you. The little lip you see still there is totally covered by the license plate.

Hey,vrecksler. Is your seat/trunk lock on a cable like mine is? If so there is no reason why it can't be moved as long as you have somewhere it'll fit that the cable can reach. Even it it doesn't it would be interesting to see if it could be replaced with some bicycle cable. Then you could put the lock pretty well anywhere. And nothing says your plate can't be on a spring loaded flap with the trunk lock underneath the plate.

Food for thought?

I say chop the undertail yoursef,and paint it!

Veeerrrrrry nice. Did you do the paint yourself? I've thought a couple of time about doing a solo seat cover for the tail but my paint is a special mix and it's candy to boot. So I just go lie down until the feeling goes away :rolleyes
