when I was in Italy/France in April/May I noticed that everyones number plates were attached by rivets, not screws....not sure why this was, maybe so no-one could flog your plates easily?......now I bet those rivets make a nice mess of the front bar when you want to change your plates (or maybe you cant change your plates in Europe?)
