Im pretty sure its illegal to use honeycomb effect, 3D lettering or any other fonts other than the standard one. Id like the old style one with black background and white lettering though itd look smart on a black car  :p

Matto,
All you\'ve got to do mate is send me the details (Reg & Address) and a cheque for £12 per plate to:

D\'Sign Studio
Unit 1 Agamemnon House
Milford Marina
Milford Haven
Pembrokeshire
SA73 3AA

and I\'ll get it sorted straight away for you...... What size text would you like??? 64mm (minimum legal size) or standard 80mm???


Rixio:   Double check with the DVLA website, they have got all the rules & regs on there somewhere, you might be able to get away with white on black....... if not you could use it as a show plate????  If you need a set made up Just give me a PM!

Lets just say ... ANYTHING apart from Complete standard is illegal . I had 1 space in mine and still got fined . e.g ... K5 *** .. and i had it K 5*** .. and got fined and that was standard lettering/font and size etc..

but im sure a smaller front plate will be ok . Just need to go some smooth talking.

Yea, you are not alowed space between the first letter & numbers (or atleast not a full space!!!!
Half space you can get away with if your a good talker.
