I seem to have lost the email I had from someone who could replicate dealer number plates - anyone know who this might be - I thought it might be ebay but checked all my messages and can't find anything......

I think he means a plate that has the little dealer sticker on it. There's a chap selling some on Ebay but of course not every dealer is available.

Yeah it's to replicate the original plates that are on the car which are the dealership ones.

And the prices seem reasonable when compared to man hours in cleaning and refurbing.

I've managed to find the chap/business that does the number plates so all sorted.

Do share, others may want this option later, and let us know what the finish is like.
Thanks

+1 for Tippers

The plates on RUK are from Tippers, nice guys there. Comparing them to DTR and NWL who are still wearing their original plates they are a very good comparison. Went through an MOT with no probs either.
