Quote from: Jono FD3Stick on plates are totaly legal, as long as they are the correct size text!!!

Point 26, bottom of the page. Suggests the DVLA regard them as not legal. (Unless this is an old page an their views have subsequently changed?)

I heard that the rules were recently tightened again? If they arn\'t I\'ll have a sticky off of you as well but I\'m pretty sure that now the rules say they have to have the correct reflective background as well as the right sizes. Do your stickers have this? If they do then I\'ll have one off you?

Jono, any chance of posting up a pic of your plate on the rx. Is it a vinyl plate or a hard back plate?

I believe there are reflective adhesive number plates which do adhere to the DVLA guidelines, I have read about them being available....

stickers on fduk sees it this way, if you go to bmw and want optional metalic paint. you pay for it.  he wants no front number plate, eventually he\'ll pay for it through a fine(maybe)

I\'ve swapped to a sticky numberplate but haven\'t really been stopped for dodgy numberplates. I think if its clear they leave you alone !

Thing is: Some Ferraris have sticky plates as standard & if a car that costs £100.000+ can get away with it........ Why cant we with an FD!!!!

Yea, the Sticky plates are on a full reflective background like a standard plate you would get from Halfrauds or any motor factors!!!

Size wise you can only get away with the 64mm text on imports, UK cars it is illegal for some strainge reason!!

As said earlyer, if it is clearly readable then the ecilops (police) won\'t bother you!!!

Mine is on a plastick backing but it\'s the same as the sticky ones!!!

£12 deliverd guys........ and if you want, I can put a thin border around with eather your user name, web address or what ever you want at the botttom in small text (how ever obsine, but as you can see, I don\'t need to do that with my reg!!!)

Here\'s a pic of mine:

I think the only reason why they are illigal is because you could buy them as a kit in the past for trailers and caravans and you made your own number up. The nanny state, sorry government, want to know when you get a replacement.

Hia fella,
unfortuantely your not alowed to have any other fonts on your reg plates now, only the standard DVLA style. I could do one for you but the police would go:Nono!  that will be £30 please sir for our exmas party:Party

If you wanted I could do you one with the text in graphite grey (they havent picked up on that one yet)!!

Unfortunatly people I can only accept cheques as our pay pall isn\'t working yet!!! So if you would like a plate, they are £12 each (please state if it\'s for the front or rear)

send the money to:

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

along with a note of your reg and address (so you don\'t get the wrong item!!)

Cheers Guys

Jono did me a sticky which I\'m pretty happy with. I wanted a sticky so I didn\'t have a plate in front of the radiator. Its standard lettering size and reflective, so I figured it wasn\'t taking the mickey, just got through an MoT without comment :)
