Yeah, I fancy the idea of getting some... has anyone got any feedback/pics?

I'm guessing they're illegal though right?

Or shall I not bother?? lol ;)

Plates were about 35, borders are another 20 i think. No sure if they've got them!

I think they look better on mk1's tho! Seen a few mk2's and a vee with them and they look pants imo.

I've never had any problems with mine, although it hasn't done many miles with them on. These are reflective which may have helped, a mate of mine had german ones on his golf which weren't reflective and he had some trouble

I like them alot, however not worth the hassle! Id get them done for shows and events like FCS only..

Metal ones look so much better than the platic ones! Plus you need the borders! Thats essentially what makes them!

one of the nicest ph-quicks ever, foolish to sell imo:S

think the plates look pretty smart, don't look screwed on tho, they stick on or summit?

think i'll leave mine standard for now, can't afford any more points lol

I sorted out a group buy/deal with Dubmeister and got a good percentage off as around 50 people ordered them. Haha. They weren't the new "Lexus lights" then but I think they are now.

at the time it felt right.. id done my part with it and it was finished as far as i was concerned, i buy cars do them up and sell them... lol

looking back would have been better keeping it BUT i have a lower milage, newer, better looking canvas to play with now :)

needed a few pennys spending on it too

but yes they are stuck on with some rather industrial velcrow lol , ive ordered the propper hlders for my new ones tho

I wouldn't put GB on a French "plate" - French are awkward enough without confusing everybody lol, also I'm in Ireland :rasp:

Are these road-legal? :S

On some cars... yes. I had a mass debate (not masturbate) with some people about them and there are laws, which backup their use on cars registered before September 2001.

Don't beleive everything you read, i got busted for mine and he showed me in black and white the regulations for plates and european/JDM spec cars. )Learnt a few things myself) French plates on a UK reg'd vehicle is illegal!

;) Still left mine on tho!
