Aye they were well cheap - considering I had a look at a local garage and they were offering a much cheaper looking plate with Euro GB badge for £30!!!

Can't get pics up as the wife is away with the camera  :embarassed:

i was dubious till i got them, there of much better quality of the ones my local motor factor does for £30 too, they were so cheap i got a legal set and an illegal set, and still paid less than the local price

I too have recently replaced my illegal German style plates by purchasing from the dude on ebay...

about a tenner for both plates..

I think they are fine...i elected a 3d letter style, but tbh i think that the lettering could be of a better quality...that said, you gets what you pay for and at least I am now not giving plod a chance to stop me and meet his monthly target.  :shocked:

Let the fun begin........Red Gti, full colour coding, DSG, Xenons, Winter pack, Lux pack, Highline, Sat Nav, Sunroof, Leather, Milltek, ABT rear valance, Goodyear F1 Asymmetrics....pescaras :-)

the non 3d font is a better quality, i.e darker letters

I thought A Plates aren't great.  the plates they sent me had letters that were see through in some parts.  on the yellow plate it looked crap.
I complained and they sent me another plate that was exactly the same!

I added the lines to show where the problem is.
