www.rta.nsw.gov.au wrote:Premium plates

Premium number plates are slim, lightweight, white number plates with black lettering. They have a small number plate (83mm x 372mm) for the front of the vehicle and a larger number plate (106mm x 372mm) for the rear. Premium number plates do not detract from your vehicle's aerodynamics.


Maybe cos you were looking for them as slimline plates. Many people call them that, even though the RTA call them 'premium plates'.

ANY ONE knows the restriction for the position of the number plates in the front


is legal to putt your number plate under the front nose? or side (like the evo x)?

I went through and got sizes for SA. The sizes compare pretty well to Qlds sizes so for picture look up a few posts. SA just call them different names. I had no idea there were so many categories for number plates....

Standard (371mm x 133mm)
Slim (371mm x 100mm)
Square (300mm x 150mm)
Numeric - Up to 3 digits (190mm x 134mm)
Numeric - 4 digits (315mm x 134mm)
Numeric - 5-6 digits (371mm x 134mm)
Euro Standard (520mm x 112mm)
Premium slim (371mm x 183mm)
Premium standard (371mm x 106mm)
Bike Rack (252mm x 98mm)
Motorcycle General (252mm x 98mm)
Motorcycle 1-6 character (215mm x 100mm)
Motorcyles 1-6 dig custom (215mm x 95mm)

It is not legal to have it on the side, unless it is parallel with the front axle. There is more info on this, with pictures and quotes from the ADRs in another thread.

Somehow (perhaps by an approved exemption) Alfa Romeo cars seem to get angled plates on the front.

i know... that's the reason for my question, I have the new front nose, and I will hate to put the number plate on top ... But i saw the Mito this morning with a side number plate, and I thought we can do it too ... but i will check the other thread , thanks a lot .

just my 2c,
Ive done the same on my skyline(placed the plate on the side not the center).

Ive used a kind of adapter plate to fix it to the front bar, and also space it out so it is level and forward facing.

Unfortunately i've had the pleasure of going through the pits and various RTA/EPA/highway patrol inspections, and i've never had anyone even mention the plate to me, and thats with some picky bastards going over the car too.

As long as facing forward and the right angle(as per RTA guidelines), its legal.

According to the Australian Design Rules, which overwrite any state regualtions, the plate must be parallel to the front axle.

When a plate is positioned on the front side of a CJ, and parallel to the axle, you get this:

As I keep saying. Go look at an Alfa. It contravenes the law then. the plate is even bent to fit the contour.

Alfa must have an ADR exemption. This is possible to get, but it is probably not possible my regular people, only manufacturers I'd say. And they would have to show the reasonings and provide data that shows it does not endanger or become a hazard et al
