Numberplate Borders?

[JoedotwasT5phy]

My current plate is spaced incorrectly (previous owner) but i want to put it to the correct spacing. Is there a rule on borders around plates?

I would quite like something like this:

All im going to say, is plain plates ftw. Perhaps GB bit on the left.

But borders = :dead:

I have the 'optional border' like the plate above, imo it finshes it off.

A lot of people here use fancyplates.

Haven't used them myself but they come highly rated.

Ordered mine from http://www.fancyplates.com/

Just got plain ones cause the idiot that done my last plates spaced it funny

 

[JoedotwasT5phy]

Don't think they print the plates with the British Standard mark though. If i'm goona sort the plates i may as well get them spot on
