GTGRAFIX.COM is where i used to get my plates done (havent had any done in a year or so tho)

I have the half square on mine, looks far better IMHO the square looks like buck teeth to me! And remember even the square one is techically illigal!

gtgrafix for mine as well - small plate for 5 character reg plate. If you just look at their web site it doesn't give you the option. If you e-mail them stating what you want they sort it out no probs.

Just go to your local sign writers,

They can make any style, colour, font type and come in anysize. Used to have a mint small one before the law took 35 quid off me for the donut fund. :thumbd: :thumbd:

The requirements for displaying plates are here

There's no minimum plate size, so long as the spacing requirements are met (which is why there's a 'space between vertical lines' measurement for square plates)

To get away with a small front plate (legally) you need a short reg number (5 character is perfect, with Euro symbol) otherwise square plate might be the only option.
