i think u can buy those kits for bikes, not sure though. Maybe see wat they come with and see if u could modify it to work. ud need a servo and a switch., and somthing to make a frame too.

the ones they sell for bikes (vfx kits) are not motorized, mine was just manual flip and still very fun, but seeing how you can’t reach your plate in a car… some guys at timmy’s had a spring loaded flip attached to his kit. he just pulled a lever and it went up or showed

On my car I just modded my plate holder a bit so all I do now is pull out a bolt and I can flip it up. Only problem is I have to get in and out of the car to do it.

run a string from the front of the car to the back and attach it to the bottom of the plate over the top and pull it up when you want it and tie it to the e-brake handle 😛
