3/4 front number plates

[paulos]

I noticed a few of you have the 3/4 size front number plates and think they look good. Are they road legal or just for shows? As I understand, the font is still road legal height, it's just the surround that's reduced?
Cheers.

They're illegal and both the font and the plate are 3/4 in size....

oh right, cheers. That's that then.

Mine is 'legal' in the sense of spacings and font.

Rather than going for a 3/4 plate with reduced size font, get standard size letters cut down to an 11mm border round the edge. This is the minimum border required by law but is also noticeably smaller than standard. They may get shitty if you haven't got the BS number and the postcode of the place they were made on them, but then they were on the car when I got it, officer

Fancyplates may help you.

Do you have any pics of what that looks like?

I'm sure I've posted them previously if you have a search for my posts and 'number plate' or something lol

I would look on photobucket but work have blocked it
