Well, it looks like C=upper is the winner... Stick on plate is now ordered. Thanks very much for making my mind up for me.

I went with C, because you off road in a similar way to AL and this would be why.

Put it on the driver's side of the bumper so you get the Westfalia, syncro and numberplate all on the same side. Much tidier. You can't visually balance these 3 elements as two are already on one side. Between the grilles looks like an afterthought as it doesn't fit the space available.
Graphical Design lesson over!

I like the idea of c with a sticker rather than full plate
