Show me your number plates!

[Quade]

Looking at replacing my front number plate, just wondering what font etc to go for and size. Im looking at one that is slightly smaller than standard. Cheers

 

[Schweppy]

My full size plate cut down to fit bumper.

 

[Paul.]

3/4 height but standard lenght

 

[StevenMc29]

My full size plate cut down to fit bumper.

That looks perfect. Still legal too because the letters are still the correct size?

 

[Schweppy]

^ correct.

 

[jesus]

As above;

 

[VeinAST]

That looks good Andy! Wanna do mine ?

 

[Dave..]

Custom sized, without the huge blanks at either side

 

[chrispy.clio]

Schweepy what did you use to cut it down?

 

[Schweppy]

Schweepy what did you use to cut it down?

I didnt do it.

A mate on here did it but he doesnt come on much anymore.

no recent pics but here's mine with motorcycle letters,not 100% legal but if its good enough for a bike its good enough for a car imo lol

 

[chrispy.clio]

Oh right. I'm gona do it to mine. Looks good, though i dont know if it'l be more obvious i'v done it because of the fewer letters on my numberplate.

 

[tonksy26]

3D carbon fibre, Would really like it to be 3/4 width but ive got writing underneath and so cnt chop it down.

 

[Willy]

You have to type in your own dimensions. Have a look at Revels' thread in the guides section for more info

 

[Vish]

A discussion in another thread said the smaller height makes the plate illegal as the plate is suppose to have a certain width border all around the letters.

I doubt the fuzz would notice this much though driving past.

 

[jesus]

It's illegal but the police only seem to notice 3/4 plates tbh, and when they DID notice my plate they just said 'it might be best to get that changed mate' aha.

 

[Nafoff]

totally plain with only the reg on is the way to go, not cut down, shortened or chopped, they all look hideous to me....

untidy like they weren't meant to fit

Everyone is entitled to an opinion, its just that yours is wrong!

This looks far better than standard as it actually fits..

 

[NeonStarlight]

Whos is that black clio mk2 ph1? that a sport? or just sport kit? i fancy a sport kit for mine.. that looks nicee.

 

[jack_davey]

I thought about doing what schweppy did that looks awesome. I've got a 520x84 plate from fancyplates that fits the recess perfectly but the text is ever so slightly smaller. I personally think the 3/4 plates are begging to be pulled over and look totally wrong with gaps either side of the plate.

 

[Frash]

Mine is 3/4 size with standard font.

 

[Tigger]

That looks perfect. Still legal too because the letters are still the correct size?

^ correct.

Nope :nono:

 

[VeinAST]

Nope :nono:

As long as there's an 11mm gap around the letters it's ok ja?

 

[Tigger]

If the plate is cut to the size of the recess in the bumper then it's impossible to have all of the correct margins & legal font size.

Pity really!

 

[RichCup]

You want standard width with a 90mm height. I got 83mm and it doesn't fill the recess properly.

Got pulled for this last night so might change it to stop a £30 fine if the same coppers pull me again:

Mine - it's a real one

 

[Paul.M]

is the recess on the non sport the same size does anyone know?

 

[m4rkie23]

what size is this? perfect imo! this is the size that i want. also need a new rear as mine is mounted too high.

 

[Paul.]

its something like 520mm x 84mm. Ive had about 12 pms about the plate lol

 

[Muttley1]

A few different ideas!

 

[m4rkie23]

its something like 520mm x 84mm. Ive had about 12 pms about the plate lol

is that a size that somewhere like fancy plates can supply..

also, is the perfect size for the back standard? or is there some different size that fits better?
