Got mine done at good 'ol Halfords. (Standard plates only!)

Can't remember how much but they weren't expensive and done while-u-wait.

Do you mean blank ones? because Halfrauds do them, and for less than £30 a set!

And they won't print "got them done on the cheap" along the bottom

Firend of mine tried to get a rear plate recently from halfords for his trailer as he has just changed his car. They wanted to photocopy his licence and the cars V5. He left it and went along the road to a local parts centre and they made him one no problem.

I got an import square one from www.malplates.co.uk good service and exactly what I wanted, took about 3 days from ordering to arrive.

Got mine from fancyplates as well. V. good service. Arrived in 2 days. Look great with logo, phrase and silver/blue boarder. As they're in NI, I'm not sure if they're covered by the new law about getting plates. I think have to show your V5 and the supplier has to put his name and postcode on. Not sure if this is being enforced though.

Its now against the law to display any numberplate other than a white front and a yellow rear, with the makers name the only thing you can have on the bottom. You can still of course have flags, GB, UK, and EURO are the options I think.
I don't see the point in giving plod yet one more reason to stop you enjoying your motoring fun, so easier to keep within the law.
