Plate magnets
I don't have a working digital camera right now or I'd post a few. The things to keep in mind are these:
1. Glue the magnets to the back of the license plate first. For Exige I expect you'll want them glued across the bottom half of the plate so the finished product rides above the splitter.
2. The magnets are strong enough to slowly pull together during gluing and mess up the alignment. Figure out a way to hold them apart while the glue dries.
3. When dry the plate will need to be bent in a slight curve for all the magnets to rest flush against the clam.
4. Match the polarity of the magnets intended for the inside of the clam with the magnet they will correspond to on the plate. You don't want some attracting and some repelling. Make sure you apply glue to the proper side.
5. Hold the plate against the clam and use the magnets themselves to align and stablize the gluing of the inner magnets. You'll basically be doing this part blind. I certainly couldn't stick my big head through the grill to see what I was doing. (Perhaps a mirror? Didn't think of it at the time.)
Not counting drying time it takes all of 5 minutes and costs about $12. Cheap and easy...that's my style.
