Loving the plates! Where did you get them? I’m after a set for mine, then down the line a set of the military reg.

Yes, I do like the number plates. They make all the difference. Mine are the ordinary civilian pattern with the raised rim round which I sprayed black - but they were only 319.99 a pair, but, they're world's better than the reflective ones which were on there before.

Doesn't everyone spend over £300 on their number plates? Yes, such is the problem of having the pound sign over the 3 and my being too weak to press the shift key due to the heat!

:lol: that’s good to hear, it’s amazing what a pressed set does to the appearance.

I used to run a Wolf TUL as my daily and had my guernsey pressed plates fitted, managed to drive into a few camps with just a flash of my ID :shock: I even had a gobby MPGS bod who knew better than me stating my mrs can’t be in that army wagon despite me telling him it was mine, his face was a picture when I let her drive it out the gates :lol:
