US street legal atoms, how do you mount a front license plate?

Post by Crit » Mon Sep 28, 2020 4:03 am

I feel like not running with a front plate gives law enforcement an easy opening to pull over an atom. How and where can I mount a front plate? Has someone fabricated a bracket or does a company sell one? I don’t have aero on the front as I have seen some atoms mount their plate to the wing.

I mount my front plate on a motorbike license plate holder (eBay) attached to the regular (optional) place under the left hand indicator stalk. I think the plate holder is an option though & if you have a regular sized plate when mounted you need to make sure it doesn’t hit the wheel at full lock!

I don’t have wings so your options may differ...

Similar to Atlarge, I had a motorbike licence plate holder bolted to the light stalk.

Not the best photo I'm afraid, but the best I have :(

Sorry, I don't know - someone on here with a Nomad may do ..

There's no such option listed for the Nomad on the Ariel web site ..
