yes, but you only get back the cost of your plates, which is about $30

I've had 17 sets delivered,but they have now put a hold on anything that replaces an I with a 1.I've already sold some of mine that have 1's in place of I's,the last 5 sets I'm waiting for include V1PER which I have been offered $5000 for.They were meant to have a decision by last week.

Just got these delivered this morning:

hey hus, you've met me, so i hope you can take this as the joke it is...

if you put those plates on a car you drove around, that would not be a wise move in my opinion :P

i still reckon its the stupidest thing and biggest waste of money

$5000 - $495 = $4505

for doing practically nothing...doesnt seem so stupid to me

LOL, dont worry mate, i'm not that stupid :D Its for a mate of mine, he's going to put it on his Porsche 911 :)

Im so over these plates after 2 months im still waiting havent got a single plate :)

If u go N1NE11, i think we should get our plates with 1 in them.

Im surprised they allowed N1NE11, cos they have some pretty pathetic 'offensive' rules.

Ive got ST1 WRX on order but its being followed up cos WRX sounds like wrecks, effing pathetic!!! They should catch on to what the plate means!!!

So true lol...

I didn't even think Porsche..i was thinking September 11....lol.

But yeah, I'm surprised they didn't deem those plates as being "offensive"

Dont think N1NE11 was easy, after sending many letters, faxes, and phone calls convincing them that its going on a 911 porsche, finally they approved it. They called me on Friday (2 months after) i ordered GDZ1LA and ONV1SA saying its all good now. Its a policy by Vic roads to call everyone thats waiting by end of this coming week to notify them of the outcome. Inside birdy tells me all your plates with the number 1 will be approved, unless they deem it offensive.

    • I'd be very surprised if you can buy new OEM mats. But if you can, I want some too!  Do you have links to the variations you found? Also, where are you located? I found that Nengun is happy to list items to purchase but when you do buy them you'll get an email that it's actually discontinued. As far as I know the variations in floor mats are different colour schemes as well as automatic and manual having a slightly different shape. The automatic ones fit into a manual car without issues, but I think you'd have trouble fitting the other way around. I have photos that show the shape difference if you care. FWIW I bought sets of used floor mats in decent condition at yahoo auctions.
    • Hi ๐Ÿ™‹โ€โ™‚๏ธ. Just bought my Unicorn but the interior need some minor work so it would match my expectations ;). I noticed it is hard to get used oem floor mats in good condition so i started to dig if there's any chance to buy set of new ones. I found two websites - nengun and amayama and it looks like one can still buy factory new floor mats in Japan, but thers a small issue. Some mats (i assume genuine, oem ones) are marked as G4900 and these are "discontinued". The ones you can buy are marked as G4911 but i have no idea if these are also oem, made by other producer or some lower quality replacements that looks entirely different. Can anyone help? ๐Ÿ˜ƒ  P.s. there is also some strange indication - 0V005, 0V015 and 0V505. Any idea what does it mean? Would appreciate any help with this ๐Ÿ™
    • Hi, Marek here ๐Ÿ™‹โ€โ™‚๏ธ. I finally fulfilled my longtime dream - recently bought Stagea and now waiting for it to arrive in Poland. There's only few of these in my country, and one of the owners  recommended mi this forum as a source of all the info i'd need since now i own one  so here i am.  
    • Version 1 aluminium airbox is.......not acceptable No pics as I "didn't like the look.....alot" Even after all my "CAD", and measurements, the leg near the fusebox just didn't sit right as it ended up about 10mm long and made the angle of the dangle look wrong, the height was a little short as well, meh, I wasn't that confident that Version 1 was going to be an instant winner I might give Version 2 another go, there's plenty of aluminium at work, but, after having in on and off a few times, and laying in the old OEM airbox without the new pod filter and MAF, there may be an option to modify the OEM air box and still use the Autoexe front cover and filter.... maybe This >  Needs to fit in here, but using the panel, and not the pod, the MAF will need to fit in the airbox though> I'm thinking as the old OEM box and Autoexe cover that is sitting in the shed is just sitting around doing nothing, and they are relatively abundant and cheap to replace if I mess it up and need another, it may well fit with some modifications to how the Autoexe brackets mounts to the rad support, and some dremiling to move it get in there, should give me some more room for activities, as I don't want to move the MAF and affect the tune Sealing the hole it requires to stick it in the air box is simple, a tight fit and some pinch weld will seal it up tight  I am calling this a later problem though
    • and it ends up being already priced in as though you're just on 91RON without any ethanol. Car will lose a bit of economy as the short and long term fuel trims bring down the AFR back to stoich or whatever it is for cruise/idle for the engine.
