Number plate question

by **chris** » Thu Mar 17, 2005 3:00 pm

I'm going to get some number plates made up for the car from http://www.fancyplates.com/step1.php does anyone know what type of backing the should have for road use?

Very good guys!

On step 2 it asks "If you would prefer Honeycombe Reflective tick Yes "

And the question is for road use should i go for yes or no?

lol having been pulled up 17 times for my number plate I would just add that keep it the legal size with a blank background. No ghosts or fancy lettering.

Although in saying that I know leave my plates small and ghosted on principle as the police in southend get kicks out of pulling me over!

agree with gangsta, i was pulled with my shadow text on the S3OOBY C plate,

its not worth it mate

Go for standard text with a nive border

Honeycomb is fine !

Is honeycombe ok for road use?

I really only want a standard looking plate (standard font) with "slightly" different spacing.

All the answer's are here.

From FAQ:

"25 Is a honeycombed or other background pattern permitted?
No, overprinting including honeycomb or other background designs are not allowed."

But life would be dull if we all conformed would it not? Just do it.

Ive never been pulled regarding honeycombe.

If you change the spacing then expect to be pulled just when you dont want to be, happened to me on my birthday, because of the shadow font used on my plate. :cry:

Thanks guys, i'll pass on the honeycombe then just to be on the safe side.

Do you think it would make me look like a numptie if i had www.wr1oc.co.uk at the bottom of the plate on a Forester?
