you can get really strong two sided tape in most motor factors, just stick a few strips of it to the back of your plate and away you go.

Mine:



Correctly sized and spaced letters/numbers on a reflective backing.

Any graphics supplier should be able to knock one up.

My 'Fancyplates' came with the super sticky pads?

Bought some more from Halfords the other day, as a car in front kicked up a builders trowel that propelled itself into my front plate!!

Just realised that original poster wants the flexible sticky plates - soz fella!!

No, number plates must meet the British Standard requirements and we are not aware of any self-adhesive number plates that are able to meet these requirements.
