Shaved Roadster trunk?

[jceckard]

Out of curiosity, has anyone avoided the whole "license plate doesn't fit" problem by removing the trunk handle and use an electric/cable trunk release? If so, do you have pictures? I'd be interested in seeing how much of a PITA this is.

Thanks Edward. That's what I was looking for.

I have a couple of thread on this site dedicated to trunk mods. Take a look
