Talking My new number plates

My old plates had started to delaminate and made the car look pretty shabby so I got myself some new ones. I searched online and found a company who are based in Ireland, getting around the requirements for presenting your V5 document etc !

GT Grafix

Unfortunately they don't show up too well in the photo but basically I've got standard plates with a green border (to match the vRS brake calipers and logos) with "BRISKODA.net" at the bottom. The logo is pretty small (hence subtle) although you'd have to be right up my bumper to read it - more likely to get noticed in traffic queues or when parked.

£28 including p+p next day, although you could spend a lot more if you wanted carbon fibre effects etc.

I reckon they look pretty good, like I said though better on the car than in the photo !

Edit: and before there are any smart ar5ed questions, yes, there are some letters missing !

I like the way that some of the letters don't show in photo's!

How long did it take to get the plates?

The V5 document presenting is actually only a thing for our friends in England and Wales. Number plate companies will happily supply anything you want still up here.

What size is your front plate.....3/4 standard 390mm x84mm?

Do you have any pics (without the reg showing of course) just to get an idea what it looks like?
