   personally i would have the tailgate smoothed i dont think that there is enough going on at the rear. It all looks a bit boring and flat when its smoothed imo.

   I got mine smoothed and would never go back to how it was before. It looks so awesome i think. It shouldnt crack at all as its only a small amount of filler they use. They weld a metal plate over it and smoothe it off. Go for it buddy if you like the look.

   cheers for the replies.im thinkin of doing it but as stated at the top it does look a bit boring.dont really want to make the lisnece plates area smaller as it isnt smooth then.just afarid of it gettin damaged with the music.
   
   nope will defo be a welded one as i dont want no fibreglass bull
   
   vtr dan looks very nice mate. dont really like the idea of the plate being stuck on the bumper.is there anything else you can do.can you not put it on the bottom of the bumper? and do you have to have number plate lights?
   
   also can you have a refelctive sticker as a license plate?
