Do: Weld a plate in + do it properly

Don't: Pack it with so much filler that it all falls out when you turn your stereo on

keep the number plate recess and just flush the badge and wiper. looks much better and clean like that but a completely flushed one always looks chavy imo. if you do get it completely flushed don't forget to get lexus lights too!
