You may have difficulty with the sticky number plate as the area your sticking it to is curved in 2 planes.

So youll get gather up of material, hence the ripples on the bottom edge, the "non-sticky" just makes it worse. If it was hot or the adhesive was better you may end up with little creases or wrinkles.

Just saying  :-[

Ahhh i just realised on old bumper i put number plate higher up on flat bit....and it had no number fixing holes init which is why i put it lower to cover holes...and i didnt tell painter to block holes up....
What a dum dum. Ive got a tatty old efini badge...and maybe nut inserts to bolt an import plate on...else i got unsightly holes...
Doh.

I'm not  sure if you can get a number plate in what's known as "cast vinyl" I think it's a bit more workable with a hot air gun.....

If it's worth a call to a local logo maker...... Just a thought
