Ive got a little bit of money set aside and i cant decide what to do with it.
the options i have are.
1) Getting a personalised number plate which would be this(a combination of my first names Adam James then 54 and my last name Morley:


2) Get the plastics done professionally in Black but with the lower grill surround in white. like kinobeSTew has done already on his(i saw it and fell in love).
I know its not hard to do the plastics myself but i dont think i would trust myself..

Personalised plates!

Not gunna lie, I do love my personalised plate
But gloss black grilles just make the car look so much better than stamdard and way more subtle that a private plate.

The plates aren't that obvious there personalised though.... Do both!

Plastics

You've years to get a personalised plate...

get the plate pal!! i love mine and it lasts a life time unlike a car!!

Plate mate, i had the lettering done in carbon fibre effect, that coupled with the CF DMB badges, my ST looks smart...the subtle touches make a difference IMO

Plate has been ordered!
Only set me back £255 in the end which i cant complain about.
Any goos sites were i can get road legal ones printed?
or should i just go to halfords/wilkos to get them?

i get all mine from here http://www.number1showplates.co.uk/site/index.php

Hey my plate starts with AJ

Yeah I realised that a few days ago


Just went mad on eBay and brought some xenon head/fog/side lights and a tax disk holder, expect pics once I get round to cleaning her

Got mine on a rate good deal and it is very precise. Eyed it up for 3 years before I bought it.

Yeah, ive been looking for ages but didnt want spend a crazy amount, i could of got M0R13Y for like £2500 which is pretty cheap but just couldnt afford it, maybe in a few years i'll go for that one

I got a set of domed plates from demon plates, they were about £50 but look ace, I'll get pics up if you want

Out of interest what sort of quotes did you get for professional plastics? I'm dying to get mine done but terrified to do them myself.

Out of chesterfield....illegal Plates attract unwanted attention.

In chesterfield I have seen all sorts, from wrong way round letters to 20cm spacings to pink and white plates. If you was to go through Sheffield/Mansfield/Derby with such plates you would be pulled straight away.

If it wasn't illegal I would have R 12YBO instead of R12 YBO. Been tempted at times but can't be arsed with hassle what comes with it as I travell all over place.

My plate is spaced illegally and haven't had an issue, had them for years

I'm guessing some of you guys must live in areas where the police don't use ANPR (automatic number plate recognition) cameras? As illegal plates confuse them then it would be picked up very quickly, and here I know I wouldn't even get into work without getting pulled over by the police.

shuttle difference?

It depends, my brother in law used to have the 8 on his moved across so it said 8OBS- his name is Rob so it like like Bobs

anyway he got stopped all the time and had to change them so just left them off in the end- some people get away with it though

I wouldn't illegally space my reg, around here the cops use any excuse to pull you. Police always follow me and havnt stopped me for the domed plates, they use ANPR too so I'm guessing they're ok to have lol

I use the M25, A2 and A20 all day everyday, hugely busy roads with cops crawling all over and touch wood dont have an issue.........

R8 BPT is spaced R8B PT
