Although these will fit, they are not what I am looking for...
If possible I want an OH plate matching my existing plate numbers in JDM plate size (Custom made). After looking I don't think this is a possibility. Option 2 is the half vanity plate shown in the photos with some sort of Mazda logo.
Thanks for the help

That's what I've been told. Even as much as drilling out new holes is illegal... But what makes a vanity plate like RX-7 or Mazda legal and not one that mimics the OH plate with matching letters and numbers to my existing? Aren't they both essentially art work on a placard?

See this is where it throws me for a loop then... The site below sells custom aluminum plates that "mimic" a state issued license plate. Although its not made in the size I need its still legal and can be made to order.

Anyway, LRB Speed does have the 99 Spec plates at only $35 and look great! Ordered me 2 sets.
Kudos TECH for the find!

Man Tom that looks perfect! For some reason I figured the US plate was much smaller... It looks like only a little bit of the backing aluminum is showing in the picture.
Im going to try both options, one with the RX-7 half plates as well as one with the actual OH license plate. Should have some pictures up soon

I cut the aluminum to the size of the US plate. Think it's pretty close to the size of a Japanese plate, but the holes are different. You could probably go with just a strip of metal to attach a US plate to, but I wanted a little rigidity below where the bumper ends and the plate overhangs into the mouth of the radiator intake.
If you are not required to have a front plate, I would just go with an RX-7 plate if you can find one, or a used Japanese one

I noticed that also after I posted... After seeing what others have done, and seeing how close the US plate is to the JDM, im going with Toms route using a backer plate to secure the US plate on the bumper. Its a lot tighter fitting than I imagined.
Also plan to run some RX7 vanity plates at the track or at shows. But good news, the bumper came in yesterday so ill be trying some variety of plates on this week

I figured the width of the US plate was much smaller than the JDM and would have large gaps on either side of the bumper indentation... After looking at Toms its not as bad as I thought it was going to be. Im going to try a US plate on tonight and see how it looks.
Yeah I was really happy when it arrived, its in great shape and got a fantastic deal on it. And you cant go wrong with the RPF1 and 99 spec bumper, I feel they are a great combo haha.
