I hadn't noticed the lack of a front number plate, but yes, now that you mention it, that contributes a lot to the tidy look of the front of the red Rover. I like the tiny little white on black number plates I've seen on some old Italian cars, barely bigger than a cigarette packet.
Top marks from me for filling the superfluous holes in the bumper when you got it re-chromed.
At some point I hope to be able to afford a pair of new stainless bumpers for my car, and hopefully I can get some without the holes for the rear number plate light, which I think really spoils the look of the back of these cars. I hope to figure out a way to back-light the rear plate so that the silver letters illuminate against a black background.
