Black plates are cool........illegal........but worth it

If stopped the Police should give you a notice to rectify them...

Knowing i'd get stopped eventually with black and silver plates I bought a cheap set from www.fancyplates.com
In the end I never did get stopped but pressure (read: ear ache) from the wife got me to change them

That's what I'm thinkin, black plates on a black car would look amazing! And if I was to get stopped I could just claim I'd been to a show and forgot to take em off :D

You could even keep a legal set in the boot :shrug:

HI

All i'd say is just keep it simple and clean, italic letters is chavistic!! Silve on black is mint, especially on silver or black cars but its just asking for it ( as my mate found out the other day day to the song of £30). I have run round for 2 1/2 years on private plates with 3d lettering with black border and euro sign, no centre spacing on either on the 6 letters and have never had any probs with the law, As long as you don't take the biscuit i don't thoink they are that bovered. The only thing i will say tho is, the DVLA are a joke when i comes to transferring it over so allow plenty of time!!!
