No mate, don't want to disclose the reg
At just £21 inc. delivery it's a good change from the drone boring long plates.
If you do purchase I advise removing the base mount at front and mounting the short plate as high as possible just below grille line with the sponge adhesive strips to avoid the bend more on the bottom intake.If you wish you can hide the top plate gap by a black thin rubber trim on top of plate to hide the slight gap to hide the mounting pads,I'm looking for something suitable.
The rear plate is easy, clean up the enclosure then block off the screw holes with some duck tape before mounting the plate.

Would like to see how these look - could you blur out/erase the actual number plate details on MS paint?

^ Two bumper dots have to be painted up nicely first..I'll do it but if I can't blur the reg out then no pic.
