Anybody know where I would get these? Tried Prodrive but receptionist said they don't do them for anyone other than themselves. Is this true?

They won't even sell you a sticker! Just direct you to the dealers where you can only buy the limited amount of accessories.

Unless you are rallying an ex-works WRC and you have a copacious wallet they are not interested.

Sad really as we're the guys buying and promoting the marque as well as indirectly financing the rally effort.

Might be able to help if you let me know exactly what you are after - style text size, etc.............
As I make my own plates it could be possible to get some small graphics insert them onto the perspex cover before the backing is fixed on.

FYI

belive it or not the offcial reason Prodrive have given their employees as to the restriction in giving out stickers etc is because people put them on cars that prodrive have had nothing to do with then Idiots inundate them with with stupid calls saying where can I get a your prodrive Nissan Primaria etc I know you do one becase I have seen them on the road etc etc

Had some plates made up with prodrive logo on bottom and STI on the side - really pleased with them and all done by company on computer so you can see proofs before they are made.The guy said he would keep the design on the computer so , if you are still after some ,I will try and dig out the number.

Cheers.

Most good signwriting places now have the ability to produce whatever sticker you want, in whatever colour and at whatever size.
For obscure stuff, they may need an example in print to scan in, but common stuff like Subaru, STi, Prodrive, etc should be in their files.
Prices are about £5 for 3 100mm x 65mm stickers.

Fancyplates site looks good has anyone on here used them?

I thought the law had changed so you had to produce your log book to get a new plate from Jan 1st?
