Why would you want it offset? IMO it looks worse on the side then it does in the center.

Looks like its a jDm pOwAh modification! tongue.gif

Alot of civics and crap do that, or if you have a FMIC....offsetting the plate keeps from air blocking it.

I've seen it look decent on the Genesis Coupe because of the way the front bumper is designed, but I think it would look like crap on the Tiburon.

there is a guy near me that has a fmic on his civic. he just drilled the hell out of his front license plate cause he was worried about air flow. now in Kansas we are not given front license plates, only given one if it is a personalized one which this one was. a cop pulled him over once and told him he defaced state property and would have to get a new one. kid replied it doesnt matter since the front plate on all our personalized plates are not valid. nothing was said after that.

this year, they only give you the rear plate but it still costs the same, bastards.

offset and crooked in the tailgate was popular on minitrucks 13 years ago when I was in high school. lol
