Not really a lot off options have you ??!! stick on style on bonnet ?? dont really see whats wrong with it where it is, not restricting flow, possible wrong angle / police interest ??

As a supplier of number plates we would not legally be allowed to make it for you, however, if you could get hold of one & happened to have it fitted at the time of mot, the tester has autonomy in this case, the guide lines state that it must be fitted "as near vertical as possible" and "clearly readable from a distance", all the other rules about number plate letter size and style are obviously applicable.

it was as is when MOT was crried out 1 month ago


to be honest i dont really like it like it is
maybe just trim plate down so not so huge ?

is it legal to cut the edges off the plate as long as letters and spacing correct sizing

I can supply it in stencil form for you to spray it onto the Intercooler :-0

On a serious note as already mentioned, as I'm also a RNS I cannot supply number plates that do not conform to goverment regs, however if you want to PM me I can point you in the right direction ;-) and give you some handy advice? Rob
