Plates - Ummm ok then ?

[RunningRich]

I bought plates for my Group A when they were around $380. For my Alfa my personalised plates cost just $73 off trademe!

The GF wants plates now, I've had to say no fekking way. Not for $700 bucks!

[TrouserFxGt]

if you have the stock ABC123 format its about $500
if you mix it up, ie: 1A2B3C or 1MNT1 etc its $700ish.

FFS thats extortionate. For a crap ally pressing, good god.

Remanufacture transaction fee - $21 Standard Style, or $32.50 Picture / Message / Red / Euro / 440

Thats a bit more like it.

Anyone have any ideas on what those Euro looking black plates getting around are? I've seen them on a new holden and perhaps a VW or something. They look like the typical white-front or yellow-rear euro plates, but they're black background with white writing.

They look jolly nice (until every man and his dog gets them!!)

[Snoozin]

Yeah they're a new option, look great I reckon! Perfect to slam on an oldschool car that's been restored, for a more authentic look.

I have a wicked plate in mind for my ITR, but cost is so prohibitive

[KE25-KP30]

Ah really, that's good to know!

Wonder what sort of money they're worth to get your current plate remade in that look?

Hrmm wondered if yours were real deal things or internet knock offs... Richard here with the ITR from ES trackday btw....

[TTEETT]

Hey Richard, thought that was you!.. na mine were $150 from UK. Took about a week to get here.

I have two sets as the first set was from germanplates.com and were not reflective! Look good on my workshop wall though!

Will be easier to recognise your car now . Saw you coming out of the testing station in glenfield on sunday. I was in the grey Primera going into Firestone, was getting my tyres put on my RP01s... Nice car btw!

it sorta reads, "O me gay"

[Emz]

I've actually gone away from the plate and got a sticker on the front I think it looks alot cleaner I don't no if its legal or not but I want do the same on the back as well.I guess I'll have to deal with the legal issues if I get pulled over.

How long have you had the sticker on the front? i.e. have u passed a WOF with it??
I havn't attached my p.plate to the front of my car as I want a sticker but I've actually been driving round for the past 2 months with no plate or sticker on the front and I've had no probs at all.... (touch wood)

I've had no problems so far but I'm sure Xmas time when I do some mileage that will be the test.I drove around for awhile without a plate as well I just kept it in the windscreen but I just saw a Ferrari and a few Porsches with stickers so I just thouyght I'd get one and the rest is history.

haha cheers man, should hopefully be getting some 17's soon, i have 16's at the moment, got a tint strip put on the windsheild on friday and then will get a aftermarket front bumper and endcaps put on

[2jayzgte]

Also the sticker option only cost me $60 so it was relatively cheap.

Stickers are legal, sportscar guys use them. They have to be of set size etc.. contact some from a sportscar club, they should know the ins and outs

[Omegah]

if u find out if they are legal or not please post im interested to know, ive seen a few cars around with the sticker plate
